D = rt
130ft = r(26sec)
130/26 = r
5=r
Answer:
4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -3/4x - 6
m = -3/4
Slope of the line perpendicular to this line = -1/m
= -1 ÷ (-3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:
to solve for a,
f(-1) = 5
a(-1)^2 + 1 = 5
a + 1 = 5, so a=4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To define the perpendicular line we need to first know the slope of the reference line graphed.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) we have points (0,5) and (2,1)
m=(1-5)/(2-0)
m=-4/2
m=-2
For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must satisfy
m1m2=-1, we have a line with a slope of -2 so
-2m=-1
m=1/2, so our perpendicular line is so far
y=x/2+b, it must have point (3,2) so we can solve for b
2=3/2+b
b=1/2, so the swimmer will travel along the line
y=x/2+1/2
