Mathematics

VLD [36.1K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

y = -1/5 x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x - 4

m = 5

Slope of perpendicular = -1/5

Equation of perpendicular:

y = mx + b

y = -1/5 x + b

Use point (15, -1) for x and y, and solve for b.

-1 = -1/5(15) + b

-1 = -3 + b

b = 2

Equation of perpendicular:

y = -1/5 x + 2

Triss [41]

Answer:

c. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for graph

Required

Average rate of change

This is calculated as:

Rate = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

Where

(a,b) = (2,4)

So, we have:

Rate = \frac{f(4) - f(2)}{4 - 2}

Rate = \frac{f(4) - f(2)}{2}

Using the attached graph, we have:

f(2) = 4

f(4) = 16

So, we have:

Rate = \frac{16- 4}{2}

Rate = \frac{12}{2}

Rate = 6

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

the larger number is 69

the smaller number is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the smaller number

y is the larger number

x + y = 85

y - 4x = 5

y = 5 + 4x

x + 5 + 4x = 85

5x = 80

x = 16

y = 69
