What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 15x−18y=−486. Fully simplify your answer.

1 answer:

4 0

The answer is -6/5

First convert the equation to y=mx+b form
you’ll get y=5/6x+27
then to find the line perpendicular to this equation, you have the flip the slope.
ending with -6/5

Henry is conducting an experiment with 800 bacteria. He found the exponential growth rate to be 2.7% per hour. What is the amoun

joja [24]

Let's formulate an equation first. For exponential growth, we follow the formula. b = 800, r - 0.027. Hence,

y = 800(1+0.027)^t

Then, at t = 21, y will be determined
y = 800 (1+0.027)^21
y = 1399.81 = 1400

Thus, the amount of bacteria present after 21 hours is 1400.
