2. Perpendicular to y=1/2x -6 that passes through (6,-4) PLEASE HELP ME ASAP

Mathematics
1 answer:
iren [92.7K]2 years ago

Answer:

To get the slope (which we'll call n) of a line perpendicular to another line with slope (a/b), use

n = \frac{-b}{a}

Then we just plug in the point we want to cross and solve for the constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

we see that m = \frac{1}{2}

so, n = -\frac{2}{1} = -2

now we have the equation

-2x + b = y

plugging in (6, -4) we get

-2(6) + b = -4\\-12+b = 4\\b=4+12=16

This gives us our function

y = -2x + 16

Explain the special pattern for sketching a parabola
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

the parabola can be written as:

f(x) = y = a*x^2 + b*x + c

first step.

find the vertex at:

x  = -b/2a

the vertex will be the point (-b/2a, f(-b/2a))

now, if a is positive, then the arms of the parabola go up, if a is negative, the arms of the parabola go down.

The next step is to see if we have real roots by using the Bhaskara's equation:

x =  \frac{-b +-\sqrt{b^2 -4ac} }{2a}

Now, draw the vertex, after that draw the values of the roots in the x-axis, and now conect the points with the general draw of the parabola.

If you do not have any real roots, you can feed into the parabola some different values of x around the vertex

for example at:

x =  (-b/2a) + 1 and x =  (-b/2a) - 1

those two values should give the same value of y, and now you can connect the vertex with those two points.

If you want a more exact drawing, you can add more points (like x =  (-b/2a) + 3 and x =  (-b/2a) - 3) and connect them, as more points you add, the best sketch you will have.

Answer:

The Answer:

.

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2y=z

minus x both sides

2y=z-x

divide by 2 both sides
