Explanation:

All of these are done the same way.

1. Set your compass to a distance slightly longer than the distance from the point to the line you want the perpendicular to.

2. Using the point as a center, draw an arc that intersects the line in 2 places. Consider those points to be "P" and "Q".

3. You can leave the compass as is, or set it to any other distance longer than half the distance between P and Q. Using this radius, and using P and Q as centers, draw intersecting arcs on the other side of the line from the original point. Consider the intersection of those arcs to be point "R".

4. A line through the original point and point R will be perpendicular to the line, as you want.

_____

In problem 1, the point and line are obvious.

In problem 2, the point is the vertex opposite the line of interest. (There will be 3 similar constructions.)

A particle moves along the x-axis so that its velocity in feet per second at time x, in seconds, is modeled by the quadratic fun
Katyanochek1 [597]

For this case we have the following equation:

y = 2x ^ 2 - 10x + 12

Where, we have the following variables:

x: time in seconds

y: speed in feet per seconds

For the initial velocity, we evaluate x = 0 in the given equation:

y = 2 (0) ^ 2 - 10 (0) + 12\\y = 12

Therefore, the initial speed is 12 feet per second.

Answer:

The particle's initially velocity is 12.
