Write the equation of a line perpendicular to 2x + 3y = 4 and passing through (-3,-5).

Mathematics

Tasya [4]1 year ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A line perpendicular to the given line has a slope that is the negative inverse of the reference line.  

Rewrite the given equation in the format of y=mx+b, where mi is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0.

2x + 3y = 4

3y=-2x+4

y = -(2/3)X + (4/3)

The reference slope is -(2/3).  The negative inverse is (3/2), which will be the slope of a perpendicular line.  We can write the new line as:

y = (3/2)x + b

Any value of b will still result in a line that is perpendicular.  But we want a value of b that will shift the line so that it intersects the point (-3,-5).  Simply enter this point in the above equation and solve for b.

y = (3/2)x + b

-5 = (3/2)(-3) + b

-5 = -(9/2) + b

-5 = -4.5 + b

b = - 0.5

The equation of the line that is perpendicular to 2x + 3y = 4 and includes point (-3,-5) is

y = (3/2)x - 0.5

Emily and Sarah had a total of $80. after Sarah spent 1/3 of her money and Emily spent $17, Emily had twice as much money as Sar
Phoenix [80]
<span> SO in total, Emily and Sarah had a total of 80 dollars in which Emily had twice as much as Sarah.
Let’s solve to find out how much their Money is.
=> Since the ratio of the given data is 2:1, 2 + 1 =3, so let’s divide 80 by 3
=> 80 / 3 = 26.667 ,
=> Emily has twice as this.
=> 26.667 * 2 = 53.33
=> Sarah has 26.67
Now, Sarah spent 1/3 of her money
=> 26.67 / 3 = 8.89 – her remaining money
Emily spent 17 dollars of her money
=> 53.33 – 17 = 36.33</span>

Find the value of RT
Elis [28]

Answer:

RT=7

Step-by-step explanation:

RQ*RP=RS*RT

  • 9*(9+13)=11(11+x)
  • 9*\frac{22^2}{11} =\frac{11}{11} =(11+x)
  • 18=11+x ⇒ 7
