What is the equation of a line perpendicular to y=1/4x+2 that passes through the point (0,1)

Mathematics

Answer: y = -4x + 1 or y = 1 - 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find the slope of the perpendicular. The slope of the line perpendicular to the other is the <u>reciprocal and opposite value</u> of the other line's slope.

This means that the slope perpendicular to y = 1/4x + 2 is -4, or -4/1.

Now we need to find the y-intercept, to do that we will use the equation y = mx + b. m = slope, b = y-intercept.

Plug in the values.

1 = -4(0) + b

Simplify.

1 = 0 + b

1 = b

Our y-intercept is 1.

Now we can form the slope-intercept equation for the line perpendicular to y = 1/4x + 2 that passes through the point (0, 1).

y = -4x + 1

Answer:

  2)  (-∞, 17]

Step-by-step explanation:

The leading coefficient of the function is negative, so the parabola opens downward. The vertex will be a maximum, the upper end of the range. The lower end of the range will be -∞.

The vertex of the function lies on the axis of symmetry. The maximum can be found by evaluating the function at x=-4.

  y = -(-4)² -8(-4) +1 = -16 +32 +1 = 17

The range of the function is (-∞, 17].

Tickets for the basketball game were sold at $4.00 for adults and $2.50 for students. If 320 tickets were sold for a total of $1
makkiz [27]

The problem based on condition are solved using the unknown variables. The number of tickets sold to the student are 120 and the number of tickets sold to the adults are 200.

Given information-

The price of the tickets for the basketball game for adults is $4.00.

The price of the tickets for the basketball game for students is $2.50.

<h3>Variables</h3>

Variables are the unknown and the value of the variables depend on the other variables in the equation. The above problem can be solved defining the variables from the given condition.

Let the total tickets purchased by the students is<em> x</em> and the total tickets porches by the adults is <em>y.</em>

As the total tickets sold for the game is $320. Thus,

\begin{aligned}\\&#10;x+y&=320\\&#10;y&=320-x\\&#10;\end                    .......1

Now as the total money with ticket selling is $1100. Thus,

2.5x+4y=110

Keep the value of u from the equation 1 in the above equation. We get,

\begin{aligned}&#10;2.5x+4(320-x)&=1100\\&#10;2.5x+1280-4x&=1100\\&#10;-1.5x&=1100-1280\\&#10;-1.5x&=-180\\&#10;x&=\dfrac{180}{1.5} \\&#10;x&=120\\&#10;\end

Thus the number of tickets sold to the student are 120.

Keep this value in equation 1,

y=320-x\\&#10;y=320-120\\&#10;y=200

Thus the number of tickets sold to the adults are 200.

Hence the number of tickets sold to the student are 120 and the number of tickets sold to the adults are 200.

What is the solution of y − 4x = 0 and 3x + 6y = 9?
Elden [556K]
You solve this by plugging one equation into the other. Usually you have to rewrite one equation to make this work. In this case I choose to rewrite y-4x=0 as y=4x.

After plugging it into the second, you get:

3x + 6*4x = 9 => 27x = 9 => x=1/3

Putting this solution back into y=4x gives us y=4/3
