Answer:

y = 1/2x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is in slope-intercept form, so you recognize its slope is -2. The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of that, so is -1/-2 = 1/2.

The y-intercept can be found from ...

b = y -mx . . . . . for line of slope m through point (x, y)

b = -1 -(1/2)(2) = -1 -1 = -2

Then the slope-intercept equation of the perpendicular line is ...

y = 1/2x -2

What is the y-coordinate of the solution of the system of equations?

Vladimir [108]

The solution will be (7,-5), so the y-value is -5 $${y=3x-26 \atop y=2x-19}$

We can subtract y=2x-19 from the top, resulting in 0=x-7, or x=7.

If we then put x=7 into the top formula, we get:

y=3(7)-26

y=21-26

y=-5$

TRIG PROBLEM: Help me solve this, please. I will give Brainliest!

Let's start with part a, finding the maximum and minimum.

Answer a: Max temp is -5 C on day 200. Min temp is -79 C on day 500.

Sine model.

We're looking for a model

T(n) = A sin( ωn - p ) + o

where T(n) is the estimated temperature on day n, A the amplitude of the variation, omega the radial frequency of variation, p a phase shift and o an offset, the average temperature.

Averaging min and max gives -42 C; that's the offset, what we get when the sine is zero. o = -42 C.

That's pretty close to the value on day 0 so we'll just use a sine function without any phase shift, p = 0.

Subtracting min from max gives a total span of 74 C degrees, so a sinusoidal amplitude that's half that, A = 37 C.

From max to min is a half period, or about a half period since we're only seeing every 100 days. That's 300 days, so a full cycle about every 600 days.

We want the argument to sine to go from 0 to 2pi as we complete a single period, 600 days, So when n=600 this term must be 2π, so it's of the form

ωn = 2 π n / 600.

Putting it all together we get our model:

Answer b: T(n) = 37 sin(2 π n / 600) - 42

We already estimated the period at 600 days. That's a full year.

Answer c: 600 days

We can see a full period is closer to 700 days (compare day 500 and day 1200, and also day 600 and day 1300) and the phase shift might need adjusting, but I think we pretty much did as they asked so I'll stop here.
