Line x has a slope of -1/2. Line y is perpendicular to line x. What is the slope of line y?

2

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular means the opposite inverse of a slope. So -1/2 will become 2/1 or simply 2.

opposite means the sign will change, negative becomes positive and positive becomes negative.

inverse flip numerator and denominator.

the answer is 14ft

step-by-step explanation:

intensity of the vector is v= √37 ≈ 6.08 units and make angle ∡α ≈ 9.46° with east direction

step-by-step explanation:

required vector is consists of the two componentsvx= 2+4=6 units   and vy= 1 unit and vx ⊥ vywe will use pythagorian theorem to find intensity of the vector vv∧2 = vx∧2 + vy∧2 => v = √vx∧2 + vy∧2 = √6∧2 + 1∧2 = √36+1 = √37 ≈ 6.08 unitsthe angle ∡α between vector and east direction we wil find with tanαtanα = 1/6 => α = arc tanα = arc 1/6 => α ≈ 9.46°

hope this
