Write an equation of the line that passes through (1, 2) and is perpendicular to the line y = -5x + 4

Mathematics

stira [4]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

y = -1/5 + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the point (1,2) for the x and the y in the equation, set the 4 to b since we are solving for b.

2 = -5(1) + b  now solve for b

2 = -5 + b

+5   +5

7 = b

we know that the slope must be the reciprocal for it to be perpendicular

y = -1/5 + 7 add b (7) to the equation and change the reciprocal

Camille uses 7.9 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls. 1/4 of this amount is blue paint, and the rest
Mila [183]
First you do 7.9/ 1/4, that gets you 1.975. that is how much blue paint there is. Then you do 7.9-1.975= 5.925, which is how much white paint she used. So in total she used 1.975 pints of blue paint, and 5.925 pints of white paint.

Express this is scientific notation
Vitek1552 [10]
Place the decimal point right after the first nonzero digit, which is 3. 

So you'll go from this 0.003045 to this 3.045 after this move.
 
Now ask yourself: "how many spots must I move the decimal point to get back to 0.003045?"

The answer is "3 spots to the left"

The exponent of the final answer is -3
The negative indicates "move left" and the 3 tells us how many places to move the decimal

Therefore, 0.003045 = 3.045 \times 10^{-3}

Answer: Choice C)
This is assuming you meant to write the -3 as an exponent
