Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,-4) and is perpendicular to the line
y = -2x + 5 in slope intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y = (1/2)x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line y = -2x + 5 is -2.  The slope of any straight line perpendicular to this line is therefore the negative reciprocal of -2, which comes out to +1/2.

Using this fact, and the point (2, -4), we write out the slope-intercept form y = mx + b, and substitute the appropriate values:

-4 = (1/2)(2) + b

Then:

-4 = 1 + b, which yields b = -5

Thus, the desired equation is     y = (1/2)x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 0 1 -1 5

x = 0

x - 1 = 0

x + 1 = 0

x - 5 = 0

f(x) = x (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 5)

(x - 1) (x - 5) = x(x) - 1(x) - 5(x) - 1(- 5)

-3x + 5(0) = 15

-3x = 15

divide both sides by -3

x = -5

-3x + 5y = 15

cancel out the x

-3(0) + 5y = 15

5y = 15

divide both sides by 5

Applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC :

[tex]AC^2 + CB^2=AB^2 \\\\AC^2 + CB^2 = 13^2[/tex]     ....1)

Applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔACD and ΔCDB :

[tex]AD^2 + CD^2 = AC^2[/tex]     ....2)

helicopter is flying at an elevation of 450 feet. It is within sight of the landing pad and the pilot finds that the angle of depression to the landing pad is 16∘. Find the distance between a point on the ground directly below the helicopter and the landing pad. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

138 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Angle of depression (α) = 16°

Elevation = height = 450 feets

Appling trigonometry :

From the picture attached :

Height / elevation = 450 feets (Adjacent)

Distance = d (opposite)

Tan α = opposite / Adjacent

Tan 17 = d / 450

450 tan17 = d

450 * 0.3057306 = d

d = 137.57880

Hence, distance between a point on the ground directly below the helicopter and the landing pad 138 feets

The distance between a point on the ground directly below the helicopter and the landing pad is 129.03 feet.

Given that,

The helicopter is flying at an elevation of 450 feet.

It is within sight of the landing pad and the pilot finds that the angle of depression to the landing pad is 16∘.

We have to determine,

The distance between a point on the ground directly below the helicopter and the landing pad.

According to the question,

The angle of depression =  16°,

Elevation = height = 450 feet

And d is the distance,

The angle of depression is an important component used in trigonometric operations.

The angle of depression is formed when the observer stands on a ground higher than the object which he is trying to observe.

Therefore, The angle of depression is,

[tex]Tan16 = \dfrac{d}{450}\\\\0.28 = \dfrac{d}{450}\\\\d = 450 \times 0.28\\\\d = 129.03 \ feet[/tex]

Hence, The distance between a point on the ground directly below the helicopter and the landing pad is 129.03 feet.

Jim wants to make 2.7 quarts of a 60% alcohol solution by mixing together a 80% alcohol solution and a 20% alcohol solution. How much of each solution must Jim use?

Answers

Answer:

1.8 quartz of 80% solution and

0.9 quarts of 20% solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total alcohol solution to be made = 2.7 quarts of 60% solution

Alcohol concentration in first solution= 80%

Alcohol concentration in second solution = 20%

To find:

How much of each solution must Jim use?

Solution:

Let amount of first solution to be used = [tex]x[/tex] quartz

Total amount is given as = 2.7 quarts

So, amount of second solution to be used = (2.7 - [tex]x[/tex]) quartz

As per question statement, we can write the following equation:

[tex]80\%\ of\ x +20\%\ of\ (2.7-x) = 60\%\ of\ 2.7\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{80}{100} x +\dfrac{20}{100} (2.7-x) = \dfrac{60}{100}\times 2.7\\\Rightarrow 4x+2.7-x =3\times 2.7\\\Rightarrow 3x=2\times 2.7\\\Rightarrow \bold{x =1.8\ quartz}[/tex]

First solution, 80% solution to be used = 1.8 quartz

Second solution, 20% solution to be used = 2.7 - 1.8 = 0.9 quartz

Use the expression $100 + 5n to find the total price for n students to take a field trip to the science museum. If 175 students go on the field trip, how much will total cost?

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $975

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total cost= 100 + 5*n

n= number of students

The $100 is a fixed cost. It remains constant no matter the number of students. The $5 is the unitary variable cost. The total variable cost increases with the number of students.

Total cost for 175 students:

Total cost= 100 + 5*175
