What are the slopes of the perpendicular lines?

1: y=-5/2x-8
2: y=5x
3: y=3x-8

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 2/5

2. -1/5

3. -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

the parpendicular slope is found by taking the original slope and finding the opposite reciprocal. so just flip the slope and make it the opposite sign

-5/2  --->    2/5

+5/1  --->    -1/5

+3/1  --->    -1/3

Answer 2
Answer:
1. 2/5
2. -1/5
3. -1/3

Explanation:
There are two key concepts that we have to understand in order to answer this question:

1) The given equations are organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b. Here’s what the variables mean:

Y= the y coordinate
M=the slope
X= the coordinate
B= the y intercept

From the given equations we can now identify the slopes as -5/2, 5 and 3.

2) Perpendicular lines have slopes that are NEGATIVE RECIPROCALS of each other.

Example: Line A has the slope 8. A line that is perpendicular to line A would have a slope of -1/8.

Example #2: Line B has the slope -2/3. A line that is perpendicular to line B would have a slope of 3/2 (two negatives make a positive).

Now that we understand these two concepts, we need to look at the slopes of the given lines and determine their negative reciprocals to find the slopes of their perpendicular lines.

1. y=-5/2x-8
We can see that -5/2 is in the place of “m” in y=mx+b. The negative reciprocal of -5/2 is 2/5, so therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to y=-5/2x-8 is 2/5.

2. y=5x
There is no “b” value in this equation, but we can still identify 5 as “m”. The negative reciprocal of 5 is -1/5, so therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to y=5c is -1/5.

3. y=3x-8
The negative reciprocal of 3 is -1/3, so therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to line y=3x-8 is -1/3.

I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.

A large hamburger (e.g., Whopper®) sandwich contains 628 kcal and 36 grams of fat. Approximately what percentage of the total energy is contributed by fat?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total energy of the sandwich = 628kcal

Mass of fat contained = 36grams

Convert gram to kcal

1gram = 9kcal

36 grams = x

x = 36×9

x = 324kcal

Hence the fat contains 324kcal

%fat contained = fat(in kcal)/total calorie × 100%

%fat contained = 324/628 × 100%

%fat contained = 1/2 × 100%

%fat contained = 50%

Hence approximately 50% of the total energy is contributed by fat.

An airplane maintaining a constant airspeed takes as long to travel 925 mi with wind as it does to travel 775 mi against the wind. If the wind is blowing at 15 mph, what is the rate of the plane in still air

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  170 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the airplane can be represented by s. The travel time will be ...

  time = distance/speed

  925/(s +15) = 775/(s -15)

  925(s -15) = 775(s +15)

  150s = 25500 . . . . . . . . . add 13875-775s

  s = 170

The rate of the plane in still air is 170 mph.

If a, b and c are positive integers for which (a,b,c) is the only
ordered triple such that 6a +9b + 20c = 61, then what is
a+b+c?

Answers

If a, b, and c are all positive integers and 6a + 9b + 20c = 61, then right away you know c < 3, because if c = 3, then 20c = 60, and there are no solutions for a and b.

So consider two cases:

• If c = 2, then we're left with 6a + 9b = 21.

• If c = 1, then 6a + 9b = 41.

We have gcd(6, 9) = 3, but 41 is prime and 3 does not divide 41. So we throw out the second case.

This leaves us with 6a + 9b = 21. Notice that if a = b = 1, then 6a + 9b = 15. Add 6 to both sides to get 21. So a = 2, b = 1, and c = 2, and hence a + b + c = 5.

does the surface in contact with ground affect the going motion of the car ?why?​

Answers

Answer:

Yes, it does. The ground is bumpy and it creates friction acting against the car's motion.

(you can include my example too depending on what your teacher is looking for)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a fun one! Think about a ball rolling on a smooth surface, now on a bumpy sandpapery one. Which one do you think is faster? The smooth surface! This is because of this friction of the sandpaper which slows down the ball. On the other hand, the smooth one has very little friction. The same applies to cars.

What’s the question?

Research shows that many banks are unwittingly training their online customers to take risks with their passwords and other sensitive account information, leaving them more vulnerable to fraud (Yahoo, July 23, 2008). Even web-savvy surfers could find themselves the victims of identity theft because they have been conditioned to ignore potential signs about whether the banking site they are visiting is real or a bogus site served up by hackers. Researchers at the University of Michigan found design flaws in 78% of the 214 U.S. financial institution websites they studied.

Required:
Is the sample evidence sufficient to conclude that more than three out of four financial institutions that offer online banking facilities are prone to fraud? Use a 5% significance level for the test.

Answers

Answer:

Decision rule

Fail to reject the null  hypothesis

Conclusion

The sample evidence is not sufficient to conclude that more than three out of four financial institutions that offer online banking facilities are prone to fraud.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  n =  214

   The sample proportion is p = 0.78

   The level of significance is [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally the population proportion is mathematically represented as

      [tex]p = \frac{3}{4} =0.75[/tex] (gotten from the statement  ''three out of four'' in the question)

The null hypothesis is [tex]H_o : p = 0.75[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis [tex]H_a : p > 0.75[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

     [tex]z = \frac{\^{p} - p}{ \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } }[/tex]

=>    [tex]z = \frac{0.78- 0.75}{ \sqrt{\frac{ 0.75(1-0.75)}{214} } }[/tex]

=>  [tex]z = 1.01[/tex]

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

    [tex]p-value  = P(Z > z )[/tex]

=> [tex]p-value  = P(Z > 1.01 )[/tex]

From the z-table  

    [tex]P(Z > 1.01 ) = 0.15625[/tex]

So

    [tex]p-value  = 0.15625 [/tex]

From the obtained values we see that [tex]p-value > \alpha[/tex] hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

 Therefore we can conclude that the sample evidence is  not  sufficient to conclude that more than three out of four financial institutions that offer online banking facilities are prone to fraud.

g A circle is a special case of an ellipse. Explain how a circle is different from other ellipses.

Answers

Answer:

Main difference between circle & ellipse

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle is a line forming a close loop, all points on the loop line are at equal distance from the centre, that distance is called Radius. Eg : Wheel

Ellipse is also a close loop line, such that distance of locus of all points on the plane to two fixed points (foci) always sum up to same constant. Eg : Orbits of planets

Cricle is the round shape entity in which it contains only radius and double of radius is diameter Thus below explanation is the answer to the Question

Explanation:

Cricle is the most rounded shape. Its different from ellipse because it has the radius, chord  and diameter.cricle can be drawn easily with compass and ellipse is oval shape.cricle contains two types perimeter cricle and normal cricle. Ellipse has also two types partial ellipse and normal ellipse.Cricle does not  have major and minor axis length both are different.

Thus we conclude that cricle is totally different from ellipse
