Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept


perpendicuar lines have slopes that multiply to get -1
so
solving for y
add 4x both sides and divide by5 to get
y=4/5x+2
slope is 4/5


perpendicular means the slopes multiply to get -1
so
4/5 times what=-1?
what=-5/4

so
y=(-5/4)x+b
find b
given the point (-15,8)
8=(-5/4)(-15)+b
8=75/4+b
-43/4=b

y=(-5/4)x-43/4

Answer:

The other guy is correct, but to convert to standard form you would get

5x + 4y + 43 = 0

Step-by-step explanation: Guy above to correct, just converting for the Edge users.

1)A System of equations is shown below . What is the solution to the system of equations? 5x+2y=-15 2x-2y=-6
meriva

Answer:

x= -3 and y= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2y=-15

<u>2x-2y=-6     </u>

<u>7x        =-21</u>

x= -3

Putting value of x in equation 1  

5(-3) +2y=-15

-15+2y= -15

2y= 0

y= 0

This can be solved with the help of matrices

In matrix form the above equations can be written in the form

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&2\\2&-2\/\end{array}\right]  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-15\\-6\\\end{array}\right]

Let

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&2\\2&-2\/\end{array}\right] = A  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  = X  and  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-15\\-6\\\end{array}\right]= B

Then AX= B

or X= A⁻¹ B

where  A⁻¹= adj A/ ║A║   where mod A≠ 0

adj A=  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&-2\\-2&5\/\end{array}\right]

║A║= ( 5*-2- 2*2)= -10-4= -14≠0

X= A⁻¹ B

 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]    =- 1/14  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&-2\\-2&5\/\end{array}\right]   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-15\\-6\\\end{array}\right]

 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]    =- 1/14     \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2*-15&+ -2*-6\\-2*-15&+ 5*-6\\\end{array}\right]

 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  =- 1/14 \left[\begin{array}{ccc} 30&+12\\30&+-30\\\end{array}\right]

 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  =- 1/14 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}42\\0\\\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-42/14\\0/-14\\\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-3\\0\\\end{array}\right]

From here x= -3 and y= 0

Solution Set = [(-3,0)]

Solve 2x2 – 3x = 12 using the quadratic formula.
icang [17]

Quadratic Formula: (-b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a

2x^2 - 3x = 12

2x^2 - 3x - 12 = 0

a = 2

b = -3

c = -12

(--3 +/- sqrt( (-3)^2 - 4(2)(-12) )) / 2(2)

3 +/- sqrt( 9 + 96 ) / 4

3 +/- sqrt(105) / 4

Answers: \frac{3 + \sqrt{105} }{4}, \frac{3 - \sqrt{105} }{4}

Hope this helps!
