Answer: y=-(1/8)x+(21/2)
Explanation:
The new equation’s slope needs to be perpendicular to y=8x-1
To get the new slope, we take the negative reciprocal of the slope from above
8 —> -1/8
Now we have y=-(1/8)x+b but it needs to pass through (4,10), so we need to find the value of b that makes this possible.
Since (4,10) is in the form of (x,y) we can plug in these values into the new equation to solve for b:
y=-(1/8)x+b
10=-(1/8)4+b
10=(-1/2)+b
b=(21/2)
Now put b back into the new equation
y=-(1/8)x+b
y=-(1/8)x+(21/2)
Answer:
15th term =29/3
16th term = 31/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given an arithmetic sequence with the first term a1 and the common difference d , the nth (or general) term is given by an=a1+(n−1)d .
First we find the 15th term
n=15
a1=1/3
d=1 - 1/3 = 2/3
Solution
1/3+(15-1)2/3
1/3+28/3
(1+28)/3
29/3
Lets find the 16th term
1/3+(16-1)2/3
1/3+30/3
(1+30)/3
31/3
14.6 is the constant because no matter how many hours she will work (that number could change) it will always be a linear growth of 14.6.
Answer:
the slope is 1/2
Work:
if the x-coordinate is two times the y-coordinate, that means you are going up one over two each time
slope= y2-y1/x2-x1
so you can pick two points, like (2, 1) and (4,2) and use the formula
slope= 2-1/4-2= 1/2
