Line AB and line BC form a right angle at point B with points A (2,5) and B(8,3). what is the equation of line BC?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y=3x-21

Step-by-step explanation:

General outlineFind equation for line ABFind equation for perpendicular line BC

Step 1. Find equation for line AB

Given points A(2,5) and B(8,3), line AB must contain them.

To calculate the slope, [tex]m_{\text{AB}}[/tex], of line AB, use the slope formula:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m_{\text{AB}}=\dfrac{(3)-(5)}{(8)-(2)}[/tex]

[tex]m_{\text{AB}}=\dfrac{-2}{6}[/tex]

[tex]m_{\text{AB}}=-\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Since the slope isn't undefined, line AB must cross the y-axis somewhere.  To find the y-intercept, build and equation in slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=m_{\text{AB}}x+b_{\text{AB}}[/tex]

[tex]y=\left(-\frac{1}{3} \right) x+b_{\text{AB}}[/tex]

Substituting values for a known point (point A) on line AB...

[tex](5)=\left(-\frac{1}{3} \right) (2)+b_{\text{AB}}[/tex]

[tex]5=-\frac{2}{3} +b_{\text{AB}}[/tex]

[tex](5)+\frac{2}{3} =(-\frac{2}{3} +b_{\text{AB}})+\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Finding a common denominator...

[tex]\frac{3}{3}*5+\frac{2}{3} =b_{\text{AB}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{15}{3}+\frac{2}{3} =b_{\text{AB}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{17}{3}=b_{\text{AB}}[/tex]

So, the equation for line AB is  [tex]y=-\frac{1}{3} x +\frac{17}{3}[/tex]

Step 2. Find equation for line BC

Since line AB and line BC form a right angle, they are perpendicular.  Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite (opposite sign) reciprocals (fraction flipped upside-down) of each other.  Stated another way, the slopes multiply to make negative 1.

[tex]m_{\text{AB}}*m_{\text{BC}}=-1[/tex]

[tex]\left( -\frac{1}{3} \right) *m_{\text{BC}}=-1[/tex]

[tex]-3*\left( -\frac{1}{3} *m_{\text{BC}} \right) =-3*(-1)[/tex]

[tex]m_{\text{BC}} =3[/tex]

Since the slope isn't undefined, line BC must also cross the y-axis somewhere.  To find the y-intercept, build and equation in slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=m_{\text{BC}}x+b_{\text{BC}}[/tex]

[tex]y=(3) x+b_{\text{BC}}[/tex]

Substituting values for a known point (point B) on line BC...

[tex](3)=3 * (8)+b_{\text{BC}}[/tex]

[tex]3=24+b_{\text{BC}}[/tex]

[tex](3)-24=(24+b_{\text{BC}})-24[/tex]

[tex]-21=b_{\text{BC}}[/tex]

So, the equation for line BC is  [tex]y=3 x -21[/tex]

Find equation in slope intercept form of the line passing through the points with given coordinates (-4,-2), (-2,2)


Answers

Answer:

y = 2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a line runs through the points (-4,-2) and (-2,2).

We want to write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form is written as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the value of y at the y intercept, hence the name.

First, we need to find the slope of the line.

The slope can be found using the formula [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex], where [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] are points.

Even though we have two points, let's label the values of the points to avoid confusion & mistakes.

[tex]x_1=-4\\y_1=-2\\x_2=-2\\y_2=2[/tex]

Now let's find the slope (remember: the formula has subtraction):

m=[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

m=[tex]\frac{2--2}{-2--4}[/tex]

This can be simplified:

m=[tex]\frac{2+2}{-2+4}[/tex]

Add the numbers together.

m=[tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex]

Divide.

m = 2

The slope of the line is 2.

We can substitute this into the equation for m.

Here is the equation of the line so far:

y = 2x + b

We now need to find b.

As the equation passes through both (-4, -2) and (-2, 2), we can use either one of them to help solve for b.

Taking (-4, -2) for instance:

Substitute -4 as x and -2 as y in the equation we have.

-2 = 2(-4) + b

Multiply.

-2 = -8 + b

Add 8 to both sides.

6 = b

Substitute 6 as b into the equation.

y = 2x + 6

A media personality argues that global temperatures are not rising, because every year an increase is reported, such as 0.09 degrees C. The difference from the previous year is less than the margin of error of about 0.13 degrees C, so that difference should be ignored. What is the best counterargument?


The difference is only 0.04, but that is still a significant change.


The margin of error is quite small compared to the change year over year, so it is a significant issue.


The change of 0.09 is not a lot and thus should be ignored.


The margin of error is larger than the increase, so we should consider it an issue of just extra information and thus can be ignored.

Answers

The best counterargument: the margin of error is quite small compared to the change year over year, so it is a significant issue.

What is Margin error?

In statistics, the margin of error refers to half the confidence interval. It measures how much of a random sample does not fall within the confidence interval as the number of samples taken increases indefinitely.

As, the temperature rises by 0.09 degree.

So, the difference between margin error and increase is higher which is

= 0.13- 0.09

=0.04

Hence, The margin of error is quite small compared to the change year over year, so it is a significant issue.

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

Given:  [tex]\textsf{The image provided with 2 angles and one side}[/tex]

Find:  [tex]\textsf{Solve for the unknown side of x}[/tex]

Solution:  In order to determine the length of x we need to use some trigonometric functions.  Using Soh Cah Toa we can see that we can either use 30 degrees or 60 degrees.  We will stick to 60 and we can see that the opposite side is 3 and the hypotenuse is x meaning that we need to use sin.  Plug in the values and solve for the unknown.

Plug in the values

[tex]\textsf{sin(30) = }\frac{\textsf{opposite}}{\textsf{hypotenuse}}[/tex][tex]\textsf{sin(30) = }\frac{\textsf{3}}{\textsf{x}}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by x

[tex]\textsf{sin(30) * x = }\frac{\textsf{3}}{\textsf{x}}\textsf{ * x}[/tex][tex]\textsf{sin(30) * x = 3}[/tex]

Divide both sides by sin(30)

[tex]\textsf{sin(30) * x}*\frac{1}{\textsf{sin(30)}}\textsf{ = 3}}*\frac{1}{\textsf{sin(30)}}[/tex][tex]\textsf{x = 3}}*\frac{1}{\textsf{sin(30)}}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\textsf{x = 3}}*\frac{1}{\textsf{0.5}}[/tex][tex]\textsf{x = 6}[/tex]

Therefore, the value of the unknown variable x is 6 units.

The equation which represents the lower unit rate of these two relationships is y = 2x/11.

How to determine the equation?

In order to determine the equation which represents the lower unit rate of these two relationships, we would find the slope of the given points.

Mathematically, the slope of a straight line can be calculated by using this formula;

[tex]Slope = \frac{Change\;in\;y\;axis}{Change\;in\;x\;axis}\\\\Slope = \frac{y_2\;-\;y_1}{x_2\;-\;x_1}[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]Slope = \frac{6\;-\;4}{33\;-\;22}\\\\Slope = \frac{2}{11}[/tex]

Slope = 2/11.

From the standard equation, we have:

y = mx + c

y = 2x/11 + 0

y = 2x/11.

The domain of ​(f​g)(x) consists of the numbers x that are in the domains of both f and g.

Answers

The statement "The domain of (fg)(x) consists of the numbers x that are in the domains of both f and g" is FALSE.

Domain is the values of x in the function represented by y=f(x), for which y exists.

THe given statement is "The domain of (fg)(x) consists of the numbers x that are in the domains of both f and g".

Now we assume the [tex]g(x)=x+2[/tex] and [tex]f(x)=\frac{1}{x-6}[/tex]

So here since g(x) is a polynomial function so it exists for all real x.

[tex]f(x)=\frac{1}{x-6}[/tex]  does not exists when [tex]x=6[/tex], so the domain of f(x) is given by all real x except 6.

Now,

[tex](fg)(x)=f(g(x))=f(x+2)=\frac{1}{(x+2)-6}=\frac{1}{x-4}[/tex]

So now (fg)(x) does not exists when x=4, the domain of (fg)(x) consists of all real value of x except 4.

But domain of both f(x) and g(x) consists of the value x=4.

Hence the statement is not TRUE universarily.

Thus the given statement about the composition of function is FALSE.

minute. How many minutes would you have to use in a month in order for the second
plan to be preferable?

Answers

Answer:

at least 450 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Find an expression for the cost of each plan as a function of the number of minutes. Set the expressions equal to each other, and solve for the number of minutes.

Let x = number of minutes.

First plan:

cost (in dollars) = 0.21x

Second plan:

cost (in dollars) = 0.11x + 44.95

Set the expressions equal:

0.21x = 0.11x + 44.95

Subtract 0.11x from both sides.

0.1x = 44.95

Divide both sides by 0.1

x = 44.95/0.1

x = 449.5

Since you cannot have a fraction of a minute, the answer is 450 minutes.
