- If the line y = mx + c passes through the point of intersection of the lines x - 2y = -1 and y = 2 and is perpendicular to the line y = 4x + 8 , then find the values of m and c.
Help!! Irrelevant / Random answers will be reported*

Answers

Answer:

[tex]m = - \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

[tex]c = 2 \frac{3}{4} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by finding the point of intersection of the lines x -2y= -1 and y= 2.

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

y= 2 -----(2)

Substitute (2) into (1):

x -2(2)= -1

x -4= -1

x= 4 -1

x= 3

Thus, the point of intersection is (3, 2).

y= 4x +8

Slope= 4

The product of the slopes of perpendicular lines is -1.

4m= -1

m= -¼

y= -¼x +c

Since the line passes through (3, 2), we can substitute this coordinates into the equation to find the value of c.

When x= 3, y= 2,

[tex]2 = - \frac{1}{4} (3) + c[/tex]

[tex]c = 2 + \frac{3}{4} [/tex]

[tex]c = 2 \frac{3}{4} [/tex]

☆Answer : m = -¼ c = 2¾

geometry problem, Write the equation of each line described below,

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

(a)

y = - 2x + 5 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 2

Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, 2 ) into the partial equation

2 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 6 = - 4

y = - 2x - 4 ← equation of parallel line

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

(b)

y = 3x + 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] , then

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (3, 2 ) into the partial equation

2 = - 1 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 1 = 3

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] x + 3 ← equation of perpendicular line

Discount = 35% .

Hence the new price is (100-35)% = 65% of original price .

A recipe for biscuits says to mix 6 cups of flour with 2 cups of milk.
How many cups of milk would you need for 5 cups of flour?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] or [tex]1\frac{2}{3}[/tex] cups of milk

Step-by-step explanation:

So if you have the ratio of 6 cups of flour to 2 cups of milk you can make this the fraction: [tex]\frac{6}{2}[/tex] and then for the 5 cups of flour to 'x' cups of milk the fraction would be: [tex]\frac{5}{x}[/tex]

To solve for 'x', let the 2 fractions equal each other and cross multiply.

[tex]\frac{6}{2} = \frac{5}{x}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{2*5}{6} = \frac{10}{6} = \frac{5}{3} = 1\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

So you would need [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] or 1 and [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] cups of milk for 5 cups of flour.

The time it will take them to finish the journey is 2.6 hours

What is speed?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of position of an object in any direction. Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered.

It is measured in meter/sec(SI unit). it can also be measured in other units.

Speed is expressed as;

speed = distance /time

distance = 37.7 miles

speed = 14.5 miles per hour

time = distance /speed

= 37.7/14.5

= 2.6 hours.

Therefore it will take them 2.6 hours to finish the journey.

solve the following inequality
-2x+12<36

Answers

Answer: x > -12

-2x + 12 < 36
Subtract 12 from both sides
-2x < 24
Divide both sides by -2
Because you divided by a negative number, flip the sign
x > -12

Check
Choose a value for x
-11 > -12
-2(-11) + 12 < 36
22 + 12
34 < 36; is True

Answer:

x>-12

Step-by-step explanation: you have the equation -2x+12 <36

so what do you do first?

you would subtract 36 on both sides like this: -2x+12-36 <-36

then you get -2x < 24

divide both sides by -2  like this : -2/-2x<24/-2

and since your dividing by -2 on both sides

the sign would be less then sign instend of a greater then

so the answer is x>-12

(xy^2+x)dx + ( yx^2+y )dy =0

Answers

Answer:

(y^2+1)(x^2+1)=k

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like it is possibly separatable.

Let's try.

Factor the x out on first term and factor the y out on second term:

x(y^2+1)dx+y(x^2+1)dy=0

Subtracting y(x^2+1)dy on both sides:

x(y^2+1)dx=-y(x^2+1)dy

Divide both sides by (y^2+1)(x^2+1):

x/(x^+2+1)dx=-y/(y^2+1)dy

Integrate both sides..

Use substitution u=x^2+1 and v=y^2+1...so du= 2x dx and dv=2y dy.

.5du/u=-.5dv/v

.5ln|u|=-.5ln|v|+c

Multiply both sides by 2:

ln|u|=-ln|v|+c

Plug in our substitutions :

ln|x^2+1|=-ln|y^2+1|+c

Absolute values unnecessary since insides are positive always.... also -ln(y^2+1)=ln(1/(y^2+1))

e^ on both sides:

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

(y^2+1)(x^2+1)=k
