Answer:

(-2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

When x = 0,

y = -1/2 * 0

y = 0

When y = 0,

0 = -1/2 * x

0 = -1*x/2

0 = -x/2

-x = 2

Divide both sides by the cofficient of x, -1

-x/-1 = 2/-1

x = -2

Therefore, the ordered pair is (-2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Determine an ordered pair</u>

A solution of an equation just means that the point lies on the line. We can find any y-value when we plug in a specific x-value. For example, if we want to know what ordered pair lies at x=1, we just plug in y = -1/2(1) and solve for y which gives us -1/2. This gives us an ordered pair of (1, -1/2). We can continue to do this for any x value.

We can also reverse the order and plug in the y-value and get the x-value in order to accomplish the same goal but it's a bit harder.

Hope this helps!

Which equations represent the line that is perpendicular to the line 5x − 2y = −6 and passes through the point (5, −4)? Select t

nignag [31]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

On the other hand we have that if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1. So:

$m_ {1} * m_ {2} = - 1$

The given line is:

$5x-2y = -6\\-2y = -6-5x\\2y = 5x + 6\\y = \frac {5} {2} x + \frac {6} {2}\\y = \frac {5} {2} x + 3$

So we have:

$m_ {1} = \frac {5} {2}$

We find $m_ {2}:$ $m_ {2} = \frac {-1} {\frac {5} {2}}\\m = - \frac {2} {5}$

So, a line perpendicular to the one given is of the form:

$y = - \frac {2} {5} x + b$

We substitute the given point to find "b":

$-4 = - \frac {2} {5} (5) + b\\-4 = -2 + b\\-4 + 2 = b\\b = -2$

Finally we have:

$y = - \frac {2} {5} x-2$

In point-slope form we have:

$y - (- 4) = - \frac {2} {5} (x-5)\\y + 4 = - \frac {2} {5} (x-5)$

ANswer:

$y = - \frac {2} {5} x-2\\y + 4 = - \frac {2} {5} (x-5)$

Find the inverse function

Troyanec [42]

The inverse of the function is f(x) = $x^{3}$ + 8

In order to find the inverse of any function, start by switching the f(x) and x. Then solve for the new f(x). The result will be the inverse function. The work is below for you.

f(x) = $\sqrt[3]{x - 8}$ ----> Switch f(x) and x
