What is an equation of the line perpendicular to y=1/5x+2 that contains (15,-4)

Mathematics

Answer:

y + 4 = -5(x - 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line has a slope of 1/5.  Any new line perpendicular to this given line has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of 1/5:  -5.

Use the point-slope equation of a line:  y - k = m(x - h), where (h, k) is the point through which the new line passes.  Here h = 15 and k = -4, so we have:

y + 4 = -5(x - 15)

This line is perpendicular to the given line and also passes through (15, -4).

What is the vertex of g(x) = 3x2 − 12x + 7?<br><br> (−6, −5) <br> (−2, −5)<br> (2, −5)<br> (6, −5)
34kurt

Answer:

(2, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to vertex form:

3x^2 - 12x + 7

= 3(x^2 - 4x) + 7

Completing the square:

= 3[ (x - 2)^2 - 4)] + 7

= 3(x - 2)^2 - 12 + 7

= 3(x - 2)^2 - 5.

Comparing with the general form

a(x - b)^2 + c  we see that the vertex is (b, c)  =   (2, -5).

if an exterior angle of a triangle has a measure of 35 degrees, what is the measure of the adjacent interior angle?
Alona [7]

Answer:

145

Step-by-step explanation:

Adjacent interior angle = x

Sum of exterior angle and adjacent interior angle = 180

35 + x = 180

x = 180 - 35

x = 145
