Find the equation of the line that passes through (1,2) and is perpendicular to

Mathematics
1 answer:
uysha [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Remember that the slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1 - 2x     the slope is -2     the value of the x term.

So the slope of the new line using point (- 1, 2)  is  1/2.

Now use y = mx + b where y = -1, x = 2, and m = 1/2 .

y = mx + b

-1 = 1/2(2) + b                solve for "b", the y-intersect

-1 =  1 + b

-2 = b

The line that is perpendicular to y = 1 - 2x  is  y = 1/2x - 2

Gavin thought he was making a good investment when he heard about an online grocery company. So he bought 500 shares in the comp
kirill [66]
The answer would be D) 98.8% because if the initial price is $25 per share, then Gavin would have spent $12,500. None of the other answers make sense since if it was just 3% or 82.3%, then it would be too much to equal $150 in return. If you were to put C, then the shares would equal $4.43 each, and If you bought 500 shares, then it would equal $2,212.5 which would be way more than $150. In the other hand, D is correct because then only 1 share would equal $0.3 and that multiplied by 500 equals precisely $150.

Hope this helps!

Please help me with #5
nlexa [21]
The answer is C, 25% increase. To find the increase, subtract starting value (780) from the final value (975). It equals out to be 195. Divide 195 by the starting value which turns out to be 0.25. Then, multiply 0.25 by 100 which equals out to be 25.
