Find the equation of a line passing through a point (3,5) and perpendicular to the line joining the points (3, 7) and (7, -1)

Mathematics
1 answer:
eduard2 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

we start first by finding the gradient of the line

change in y/change in x

7-(-1)/3-7=8/-4

=-2

then for perpendicular lines m1m2=-1

therefore to find the gradient of that line

-2m2=-1

therefore m2=2

so therefore

y-5/x-3=2

so y-5=2x-6

y-2x=-1

in the form y= mx +c

then y=2x-1

Explain how to divide 3/4 ÷ 3/8 by using reciprocal of 3/8​
sertanlavr [38]

The reciprocal of 3/8 would be 8/3 (basically reversing the numbers).

When dividing fractions, you can just multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction instead of dividing by the second fraction.

3/4 ÷ 3/8

= 3/4 × 8/3

Simplifying gives us the final answer:

= 2

Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Evaluating the Six Trigonometric Function Question attached
ziro4ka [17]
If tan theta is -1, we know immediately that theta is in either Quadrant II or Q IV.  We need to focus on Q IV due to the restrictions on theta.

Because tan theta is -1, the ray representing theta makes a 45 degree angle with the horiz axis, and a 45 degree angle with the negative vert. axis.  Thus the hypotenuse, by the Pythagorean Theorem, tells us that the hyp is sqrt(2).
Thus, the cosine of theta is adj / hyp, or +1 / sqrt(2), or [sqrt(2)]/2

The secant of theta is the reciprocal of that, and thus is

   2            sqrt(2)
---------- * ------------ = sqrt(2)    (answer)
 sqrt(2)      sqrt(2)

A bacterium cell splits into 2 cells every hour. Write and evaluate an exponential expression to find how many cells there will
timurjin [86]

Answer:

2^x

64 bacterium

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

doubles every hour

if x = hours

2^x

2^x --> 2⁶ = 64

2^x = 1024

1024 = 2^10 ---> x=10
