The equation of line WX is 2x + y = −5. What is the equation of a line perpendicular to line WX in slope-intercept form that contains point (−1, −2)?

y = one half x + three halves
y = negative one halfx + three halves
y = one half x − three halves
y = negative one halfx − three halves

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 1/2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest was you do this is to first rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).  After rearranging, you can find the slope (m).

2x + y = -5

y = -2x - 5

The slope is -2.  Since the line we are trying to find is perpendicular, find the inverse and multiply it by -1.

-2  =>  1/2

Now use the point-intercept form to find the new equation.  Use the slope (1/2) and the given point (-1, -2).

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-2) = 1/2(x - (-2))

y + 2 = 1/2(x + 2)

y + 2 = 1/2x + 1

y = 1/2x - 1

The equation of the line perpendicular to line WX is  y = 1/2x - 1.

Answer 2

The equation is y = (1/2)x -(3/2) ; y = one half x − three halves.

The correct option is D.

What is the equation of a Straight Line?

An equation of the straight line is given by y = mx+c,

Here m is the slope and c is the intercept on y-axis.

The equation of the line WX is 2x+y = -5

y = -2x -5

The product of the slopes of the line and the line perpendicular to this line will be -1

Therefore the slope of the line perpendicular to the line WX is -2 * m = -1,

m = 1/2

y = (1/2)x +c

The line passes through the points (-1, -2)

-2 = (1/2) (-1) +c

c = -2 +(1/2)

c = (-4 +1) /2

c = -3/2

Therefore, the equation is y = (1/2)x -(3/2) ; y = one half x − three halves.

The correct option is D.

Answer:

Bisecting an Angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

This image shows the Bisection of an Angle. The 'x' shaped mark between the angle is formed when a protractor is used to mark the place in which a ray must pass through the center of the 'x' to be an equal bisection of the angle. This shows that the process that is being undergone is finding the bisection of the angle.

picking a red golf ball, replacing it, and then picking a

yellow golf ball? Written as a percent?

Answers

Answer: The answer is provided below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, a box contains 20 miniature golf putt-putt balls out of which 10 are yellow, 6 are red, and the remaining 4 are pink.

The probability of picking a red golf ball will be:

= 6/20 × 100

= 600/20

= 30%

If the red ball is replaced, the probability of picking a yellow golf ball will be:

= 10/20 × 100%

= 50%

Find all missing angles.

Answers

Answer:  

m<1 = 51

m<2 = 34

m<3 = 95

m<4 = 38

m<5 = 47

m<6 = 74

m<7 = 59

Step-by-step explanation: because to get angle 1 you take 180 (because its is a straight line) and subtract the angle 129 giving you m<1 witch is 51. the second one is 180 - (m<1 + 95) =m<2 witch is 34 so m<2 = 34. third is the angle 95 because the lines that intersect give equal opposite angles so m<3 = 95. Four is 180 - (m<3 + 47) =m<4 witch is 38. fifth is opposite angle so it is 47. sixth is m<5 +m<6 + m<7 = 180 so m<5 is 47 and we can find m>7 by subtracting from 180 the angle 121 giving us m<7 = 59 so we will add m<5 and m<7 and subtract from 180 giving us m<6 witch is 74.

X/3 + 2y/3 = -1 equ 1

X - y/3 = 9 equ 2

eliminate X/3.

X/3 + 2y/3 = -1..... x 1 ( co-efficient of X in equ2 )

X - y/3 = 9 ...... x 1/3 ( co-efficient of X in equ1 )

X/3 + 2y/3 = - 1 equ 3

-

X/3 - y/9 = 3 equ 4

0 + 7y/9 = -4

y = -36/7

( input the value of y into equ 4 )

X/3 -y/9 = 3

X/3 - (-36/7)/9 = 3

X/3 + 36/63 = 3

X/3 = 3 - 36/63

X/3 = 153/63

X = 459/63

The area of a circle is 18pi square inches. If the area of a sector of this circle is 6pi square inches, then which of the following must be the sector's central angle?
Please help I’ll give you brainliest promise !

Answers

Answer:

240 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, the area of a circle is

A = 2 * pi * r^2

we need to calculate the radius of the circle first

18pi = 2pi * r^2

divide both sides by 2pi

r^2 = 9

r = 3 inches

Area of sector = angle/360 * pi * r^2

6pi = angle/360 * pi * 3^2

6pi = angle/360 * 9pi

(360 * 6pi)/9pi = angle

40 * 6 = 240 degrees

15 (a). The longer leg is [tex]7\sqrt{3}[/tex]  units long

15 (b). The hypotenuse is [tex]14[/tex] units long

=====================================================

Explanations:

For a 45 degree right triangle, aka 45-45-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is equal to sqrt(2) times the short leg. Algebraically we can say

[tex]y = x\sqrt{2}[/tex] where x is the leg and y is the hypotenuse

Let's solve for x

[tex]y = x\sqrt{2}\\\\x\sqrt{2} = y\\\\x = \frac{y}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}*\sqrt{2}} \ \text{rationalizing denominator}\\\\x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\[/tex]

Now plug in the given hypotenuse y = 42, this leads to,

[tex]x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{42\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{42}{2}\sqrt{2}\\\\x = 21\sqrt{2}\\\\[/tex]

---------------------------

For a 30-60-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is double that of the short leg. So the hypotenuse is 2*7 = 14.

The longer leg is equal to sqrt(3) times the short leg. The longer leg is [tex]7\sqrt{3}[/tex]
