The equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1

<h3>Equation of a line</h3>

A line is the shortest distance between two points. The equation of a line in point-slope form and perpendicular to a line is given as;

y - y1 = -1/m(x-x1)

where

m is the slope

(x1, y1) is the intercept

Given the following

Point = (4, -1)

Line: 2x-y - 7 = 0


Determine the slope

-y = -2x + 7

y= 2x - 7

Slope = 2

Substitute

y+1 = -1/2(x -4)

Write in slope-intercept form

2(y + 1) = -(x - 4)

2y+2 = -x + 4

2y = -x + 2

y = -1/2 + 1

Hence the equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1

Y = 2 - 4x input output
tester [92]

Every function is a rule which tells you how to associate inputs and outputs. The input, also known as independent variable, is often indicated with the letter x, while the output, also known as dependent variable, is often indicated with the letter y.

With this notation, we write y = f(x), read "y is a function of x", in the sense that the value of the variable y depends on the value of the variable x, and f is the function that tells you how y depends on x.

In your example, you have y = f(x) = 2-4x, which means "subtract four times the input (4x) from 2"

So, it doesn't matter which input you chose (i.e. the value for x), because you will always have to behave this way:

  • Pick an input value, x
  • Multiply it by four to get 4x
  • Subtract this number from 2: 2-4x

Here are some examples of explicit calculations: if I choose x = 2 and input, the workflow will be

  • Pick an input value, 2
  • Multiply it by four to get 8
  • Subtract this number from 2: 2-8=-6

So, if the input is 2, the output is -6

Similarly, if we choose x = 0 as input, we have:

  • Pick an input value, 0
  • Multiply it by four to get 0
  • Subtract this number from 2: 2-0=2

So, if the input is 0, the output is 2. And so on: for every possible value for x you have the correspondant value for y, with the function f telling you how to associate one with the other.

Avery is mixing red dye with brown dye to make a maroon dye she needs less than 200 ml of the maroon dye. She wants to mix at le
enot [183]
To answer this item, we let x and y be the amounts (in mL) of the red and the brown dyes, respectively. The equations that would allow us to answer the question are,
                               x + y < 200
                                  
                                    x ≤ 2y
The values of x and y in the inequalities are therefore 133.33 mL and 66.67 mL.
