(4, 2) and (8, 1) (option D)

Explanation:

The given equation:

y = 4x - 1

comparing with equation of line:

y = mx + c

m = slope = 4

c = y-intercept = -1

For a line to be perpendicular to another line, the slope of one line will be the negative reciprocal of the other line.

We need to find the option which will give a negative reciprocal of 4.

slope=m\text{ = }\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

a) (1, -3) and (2, 1)

\begin{gathered} slope=\text{ }\frac{1-(-3)}{2-1}=\frac{1+3}{1}\text{ = }\frac{\text{4}}{1} \\ \text{slope = 4} \end{gathered}

b) (-4, 7) and (-1, -5)

\begin{gathered} \text{slope = }\frac{-5-7}{-1-(-4)}=\frac{-5-7}{-1+4}=\frac{-12}{3} \\ \text{slope = -4} \end{gathered}

c) (-8, -4) and (0, -2)

\begin{gathered} \text{slope = }\frac{-2-(-4)}{0-(-8)}=\frac{-2+4}{0+8}=\text{ }\frac{2}{8} \\ \text{slope = }\frac{1}{4} \end{gathered}

d) (4, 2) and (8, 1)

\begin{gathered} \text{slope = }\frac{1-2}{8-4} \\ \text{slop}e\text{ }=\frac{-1}{4} \end{gathered}

slope = 4

reciprocal of 4 = 1/4

negative reciprocal = - 1/4

Hence, the option whose slope gives the negative reciprocal of 4 is (4, 2) and (8, 1) (option D)

The question is below:​
Sonja [21]

Answer:

x = 19.5, RQS=43

Step-by-step explanation:

It is important to note that RQS and TQS are supplementary, meaning their angles will add up to 180. Knowing this, we can create and solve the equation to find x..

(2x+4) + (6x+20) = 180

8x + 24 = 180

8x = 156

x = 19.5

Now that we know the value of x, we can substitute it into the equation for RQS, 2x+4.

2(19.5)+4

39+4

43

Hope this helped!

Find the measure of the angle. <br> I need to show my work, please, thank you!!!
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

148

Step-by-step explanation

A you may have studies,

x+125+23=180

x+148=180

x=132

Angle S = 132

but to find ? you have to add U and T

so it's y=125+23=148

The sum of four consecutive even integers is 180. what is the smallest integer?
n200080 [17]
42
let the smallest even number be x, than the four even numbers are x, x+2, x+4, x+6, their sum is 180

x+x+2+x+4+x+6=180
                4x+12=180
                      4x=168
                        x=42
the smallest even number is 42.

The answer to #2?? I already have the graph but I still need the answer
Sidana [21]
If we have 

y = 6x + 1 and x - y = 11, we can take advantage of  y - y = 0 as follows:
                                         Subtract x from both sides of the 2nd equation:
                                         -y = 11 - x

Now combine 

 y = 6x + 1
-y = 11 - x
--------------
0 = 5x + 12.  Solving for x, x = -12/5.     Using the equation above, find y:
                                                               -y = 11 - x
                                                                   = 11 - (-12/5)
                                                                   = 55/5 + 12/5 = 67/5

Then the solution is (-12.5, 67/5).
