Answer:

A perpendicular line has an opposite-reciprocal slope.

The slope given is m = 5. So the perpendicular slope is m = -\frac{1}{5}.

Now subsitute your (x, y) values to find the y-intercept, b.

y = -\frac{1}{5} x + b

-1 = -\frac{1}{5}( 3) + b

-1 = -\frac{3}{5}+ b

-1 + \frac{3}{5} = b

-\frac{5}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = b = -\frac{2}{5}

Answer: y = -\frac{1}{5} x - \frac{2}{5}

Over [174]

Answer:

The price of pretzels in 1975 = $1.80

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question we are assuming the steady rate means linear.Let x be the year and y be the price.

We need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

  = (4.80-4.05)/(2015-2005)

  =.75/10

 = .075

The slope is .075

We can use the point slope form of the equation  

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-4.80 = .075(x-2015)

Distribute

y - 4.80 = .075x -151.125

Add 4.80 to each side

y - 4.80+4.80 = .075x -151.125+4.80

y =  .075 x - 146.325

We want to find out how much pretzels were in 1975.  Put in x=1975

y = .075(1975) -146.325

y = 148.125-146.325

y=1.80

What is the approximate solution to the equation 2^t =38
timurjin [86]

2^t =38

take the log of each side

log ( 2^t) = log (38)

the exponent gets multiplies

t log (2) = log (38)

divide by log 2

t = log(38)/log (2)

t≈5.2479

Consider the expressions 3x(x − 2) + 2 and 2x2 + 3x − 18.
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

See answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first expression

3 x (x - 2) + 2 = 3 x^2 - 6 x + 2

evaluated at x= 4 we get: 26

and for x = 5 we get 47.

For the second expression

2 x^2 + 3 x - 18

we get the exact same values when doing the evaluation at these two points.

Based on those results, one may think the expressions may be equivalent, but they are not equivalent. Because at any other x-value, their results are different. See for example that for x = 0 the first one gives "2" while the second one gives -18.

Give the domain and range.
Ymorist [56]

Answer:Graphs of inverse functions have a domain and range just like any other graph of a function. The domain of an inverse function is the range of the original, and the range of an inverse function is the domain of an original.
