Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure form of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite-signed, reciprocal of the original line's slope. Therefore, if the slope of the original line is m = -3, the new slope is m = 1/3.

The y-intercept can be found by plugging the new slope and the values from the point (-3, 6) into the slope-intercept form equation.

m = 1/3

x = -3

y = 6

y = mx + b                                  <----- Slope-intercept form

6 = (-3)(1/3) + b                           <----- Insert values

6 = -1 + b                                    <----- Multiply -3 and 1/3

7 = b                                           <----- Add 1 to both sides

Now, that you have the slope and y-intercept, you can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.

y = (1/3)x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = x³ - 2 ( substitute x = 2 )

f(2) = 2³ - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6 ← missing element

ordered pair is (2, 6 )

How many solution does this have and how do you solve it
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the number of solutions a system has, you need its slope. If the slopes are the same, check if the equations are equivalent or not.

To find the slope, rearrange the equation to isolate "y", which makes it slope-intercept form y = mx + b.

"x" and "y" represent points on the line.

"m" represents the slope, which is how steep a line is.

"b" represents the y-intercept (where the graph hits the y-axis).

Isolate "y" in both equations:

x + 3y = 0

3y = -x        Subtract 'x' from both sides

y = -x/3        Divide both sides by 3.

y = -\frac{1}{3}x

The slope is -1/3.

9y = -3x

y = -3x/9        Divide both sides by 9

y = -\frac{3}{9}x        Reduce the fraction to lowest terms

y = -\frac{1}{3}x

The slope is -1/3, but the two equations are the same.

Since the equations are the same, or <u>equivalent</u>, the two lines are always touching. The solution of a system means where two lines intersect, or meet. Therefore, <u>there are infinite solutions</u>.

Use the graph to write a linear function that relates y to x .
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

2y = x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the graph, we can see from one point to the next (from right to left), the x-value rises by 2 and the y-value by 1;

From this we can work out the gradient between two points using the formula, i.e. the change/difference in y divided by the change/difference in x:

m = \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{2}

Joining the points gives a straight line, which means a constant gradient of ¹/₂

Use the line equation formula to get the function:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

m = ¹/₂

x₁ = 0

y₁ = 1

y - 1 = ¹/₂.(x - 0)

y - 1 = ¹/₂.x

2y - 2 = x

2y = x + 2
