What is the equation for the line of reflection? On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C has points (6, 3.7), (5.4, 2), (1, 3). Tr

Answer:

The equation for the line of reflection will be x = y.

Step-by-step explanation:

On a coordinate plane, triangle Δ ABC has points (6, 3.7), (5.4, 2), (1, 3). Triangle Δ A'B'C' has points (3.7, 6), (2, 5.4), (3, 1).

And we have to find the equation of the line of reflection of the points.

Now, it is clear from the coordinates of vertices of Δ ABC and Δ A'B'C' that after reflection the x and y-values of the respective coordinates interchange and there is no change in signs.

Therefore, the equation for the line of reflection will be x = y. (Answer)

Write the equation in slope intercept form of a line that goes through (4,9) and has a slope of 1/2

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = $\frac{1}{2}$ , hence

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (4, 9) into the partial equation

9 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 9 - 2 = 7

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x + 7 ← equation in slope-intercept form

Find the x-intercept and y-intercept for 8x+4y=16

Valentin [98]

Answer:

y-intercept = 4

x-intercept = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

you can divide the equation through by 4 and change into the y=mx+c form to find c, the y intercept so the y-intercept = 4.

for the x intercept make the y=0 (because the coordinate point where the line crosses the x axis must have y=0) and then you get 8x=16 so x=2

Solve for p.<br><br> 3p − 4 = 11<br><br><br> p = 7<br><br> p = -5<br><br> p = −3 <br><br> p = 5

Kobotan [32]

P=5 because the parenthesis mean multiplication, and when you multiply 3 times 5, you receive a product of 15. Then, 15-4 is 11, meaning that p=5.
