Answer:

<u>y = 1</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

y ∝ x⁴

⇒ y = kx⁴

<u>Finding the proportionality constant, k</u>

y = 16 and x = 3
16 = k (6)⁴
16 = 1296k
k = 16/1296
k = 1/81

<u>Finding y</u>

y = 1/81 x (3)⁴
y = 1/81 x (81)
<u>y = 1</u>

What is the answer to 6^(x-3/4)=square root of 6

dangina [55]

6^(x - 3/4) = 6^(1/2)

since 6 is the base on each side:-

x- 3/4 = 1/2

x = 1/2 + 3/4

x = 5/4 (or 1 1/4)

Write an equation for a line perpendicular to y=3x+1 and passing through the point (6,2)

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

$y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Equation of line

passes through $(6,2)$

In an equation of the form $y =mx + b$ ; the slope is $m$

So, by comparison;

The slope of $y = 3x + 1$ is: $m =3$

From the question, we understand that the required equation is perpendicular to $y = 3x + 1$

This means that its slope is:

$m_2 =-\frac{1}{m}$

So, we have:

$m_2 =-\frac{1}{3}$

The line equation is:

$y = m_2(x - x_1) + y_1$

Where:

$(x_1,y_1) = (6,2)$

So, we have:

$y = -\frac{1}{3}(x - 6) + 2$

$y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 2 + 2$

$y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 4$
