What Is the slope of a line perpendicular to y=x-6

1 answer:

7 0

The slope of a line that is perpendicular to y = x - 6 means that the slope has to be a negative reciprocal of the original slope

That means the slope of the line that is perpendicular to y = x - 6 is '-1'

Hope that helps!

Determine the number of real solutions for each of the given equations. Equation Number of Solutions y = -3x2 + x + 12 y = 2x2 -

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Our equations are

$y = -3x^2 + x + 12\\y = 2x^2 - 6x + 5\\y = x^2 + 7x - 11\\y = -x^2 - 8x - 16\\$

Let us understand the term Discriminant of a quadratic equation and its properties

Discriminant is denoted by D and its formula is

$D=b^2-4ac\\$

Where

a= the coefficient of the $x^{2}$

b= the coefficient of $x$

c = constant term

Properties of D: If D

i) D=0 , One real root

ii) D>0 , Two real roots

iii) D<0 , no real root

Hence in the given quadratic equations , we will find the values of D Discriminant and evaluate our answer accordingly .

Let us start with

$y = -3x^2 + x + 12\\a=-3 , b =1 , c =12\\D=1^2-4*(-3)*(12)\\D=1+144\\D=145\\D>0 \\$

Hence we have two real roots for this equation.

$y = 2x^2 - 6x + 5\\$

$y = 2x^2 - 6x + 5\\a=2,b=-6,c=5\\D=(-6)^2-4*2*5\\D=36-40\\D=-4\\D$

Hence we do not have any real root for this quadratic

$y = x^2 + 7x - 11\\a=1,b=7,-11\\D=7^2-4*1*(-11)\\D=49+44\\D=93\\$

Hence D>0 and thus we have two real roots for this equation.

$y = -x^2 - 8x - 16\\a=-1,b=-8,c=-16\\D=(-8)^2-4*(-1)*(-16)\\D=64-64\\D=0\\$

Hence we have one real root to this quadratic equation.

Emma borrowed $89.40 from her sister. She determines that she can pay her back the total over six months. Which number reflects

omeli [17]

Answer:

$14.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that Emma borrowed $89.40 from her sister to pay her back in 6 months.

let us solve for the amount she is to pay her sister every month.

amount to be paid per month= 89.40/6

=$14.9

So that every month she pays back her sister $14.9

we don't know her balance but every month there will be a deduction.

Hence the monthly change in her balance is reflected by a deduction of $14.9
