What is an equation for the line perpendicular to y=-1/8x+6 that passes through (-3,-10)

Mathematics

Ainat [17]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

y = 8x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - \frac{1}{8} x + 6 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{1}{8}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-\frac{1}{8} } = 8 , then

y = 8x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, - 10 ) into the partial equation

- 10 = - 24 + c ⇒ c = - 10 + 24 = 14

y = 8x + 14 ← equation of perpendicular line

Whats the difference between a subset and a proper subset? {5,8} {2,5,8} Is {5,8} a subset of {2,5,8}.
valina [46]

Answer:

\{5,8\} is a subset of \{2,5,8\}

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Difference between subset and proper subset

To answer this question, I will use the following illustration.

A = \{1,2,3\}

B = \{2,3\}

C = \{1,2,3\}

In the above sets, set B is a proper subset of set A because all elements of B can be found in A, but not element of A can be found in B.

Set C is a subset of A because A = C

Using the above illustration, we have:

\{5,8\} and \{2,5,8\}

\{5,8\} is a subset of \{2,5,8\}, because 5 and 8 are in \{2,5,8\} but 2 which ca be found in \{2,5,8\} is not in \{5,8\}

1 lb 0.454 kg About how many kilograms are in 21 pounds?
Semmy [17]

Answer:

21 Pounds =

9.5254398 Kilograms

(rounded to 8 digits)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em>Pounds : The pound or pound-mass (abbreviations: lb, lbm, lbm, ℔[1]) is a unit of mass with several definitions. Nowadays, the most common is the international avoirdupois pound which is legally defined as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms. A pound is equal to 16 ounces.  </em>
  • <em>Kilograms : The kilogram (or kilogramme, SI symbol: kg), also known as the kilo, is the fundamental unit of mass in the International System of Units. Defined as being equal to the mass of the International Prototype Kilogram (IPK), that is almost exactly equal to the mass of one liter of water. The kilogram is the only SI base unit using an SI prefix ("kilo", symbol "k") as part of its name. The stability of kilogram is really important, for four of the seven fundamental units in the SI system are defined relative to it.</em>
