Give the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the line y= -4/5x+8

Mathematics

Answer:

  y = 5/4x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is written in slope-intercept form. In this form, the slope is the coefficient of x, -4/5.

The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of this value:

  -1/(-4/5) = 5/4

The simplest such line is the one that goes through the origin:

  y = 5/4x

VERY URGENT HAVE A TEST TO TAKE
Daniel [21]
The easiest way is to try the point (-4,1), that is, x=-4, y=1,
to see which equation works.
b works.

The usual way to do it is to find the equation of the circle
standard form of a circle is (x-h)²+(y-k)²=r², (h,k) are the coordinates of the center, r is the radius. 
in this case, the center is (-2,1), so (x+2)²+(y-1)²=r²
the given point (-4,1) is for you to find r: (-4+2)²+(1-1)²=r², r=2
so the equation is (x+2)²+(y-1)²=2² 
expand it: x²+4x+4+y²-2y+1=4
x²+y²+4x-2y+1=0, which is answer b.

Evaluate tan(Sin-1(-5/13)). Answer as a fraction please.
dangina [55]

Using pythagorean identities,tan(sin^-1(-5/13))= tan(arcsin(-5/13))

Let A = arcsin(-5/13) = -arcsin(5/13)

Thus, sin A = -5/13 and cos A = sqrt(1 - (5/13)^2) = 12/13.= tan(A)= sin(A) / cos(A)= -5/13 / (12/13)= -5/12
