Answer:

y = 2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 2

The slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

First find the slope of the line

2y = -x+2

Divide by 2

y = -1/2x +1

The slope of this line is -1/2

We want a line that is perpendicular, which is the negative reciprocal

-1 /(-1/2) = 2

The slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 2x+b

Substitute the point into the line

6 = 2(5)+b

6 = 10+b

6-10 =b

-4=b

y = 2x-4

depth at point B = 5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -(2/5)x - 1

Point C is located 10 m from the origin O which means that x = 10. Using this value in our equation,

y = -(2/5)(10) - 1

= -4 - 1

= -5

If a rectangular piece of metal has 27.75 square inches what is the length and width?
svp [43]

We cannot get further information about the dimensions of the piece since the number of variables is greater than the number of equations.

<h3>What are the dimensions of a rectangular piece of metal?</h3>

By geometry we know that the area of the piece of metal is equal to the product of its length and width, then we must find two <em>real</em> numbers such that:

l · w = 27.75, where l, w > 0.

Unfortunately, we cannot get further information about the dimensions of the piece since the number of variables is greater than the number of equations. We need at least one equation to find an <em>unique</em> solution.
