Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to y=-3x+1 and passes through point (5,3).

1 answer:

8 0

Answer: There are two formulas that we will use the first one is the y=m x+b and the second one is finding the perpendicular line.

Step-by-step explanation:

the first one is

y=m x+b

y= 3 x -12

the second one is

first find the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line and use the point slope formula y- y,= m(x - x1) to find the line perpendicular to

Y= 3 x 1

X= 5

Find the distance between the two points. (-6, – 7), (0,0)

Elden [556K]

Answer:

√85

Step-by-step explanation:

for this, you will probably need to draw a graph. Plot the points, and then you will notice that you can draw a triangle with one side being the x-axis ( go on to (-6,0) then drop down unitll you hit the point (-6;-7)

// use the pythagoream theorem to find the length

the distance of the leg on the x-axis is 6 (calculate 0-(-6))

the distance of the leg that is dropping down is -7 (calculate 0-(-7))

then we have 2 legs and need to find the hypotenuse.

Pythagorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2

substitute :

6^2 + 7^2 = c^2

36+49 = 85

c= √85

What is the median of this set of data: 593, 588, 540, 434, 420, 398, 390, 375

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

426

Explanation:

To find the median number in a set of data start by reordering the data from least to greatest.

original data set:

593, 588, 540, 434, 420, 398, 390, 375

data set from least to greatest:

375, 390, 398, 420, 434, 540, 588, 593

Next, you would usually just have to find the middle number in the data set and that would be your median. However, this data set has no one number that is directly in the middle. So, we will add both middle numbers together and then divide our answer by two.

375, 390, 398, 420, 434, 540, 588, 593

420 + 434 = 854

854 ÷ 2 = 426

Therefore, the median of the given data set is 426.
