Solution:

Equation of line perpendicular to , x=4 is

y +k=0

As, keep in mind , the equation of line perpendicular to , ax + by +c=0 is b x - a y +c=0

As, given the line perpendicular to, x =4, passes through the point (5,7).  

So, y+k =0, passes through (5,7).

→ 7 +k=0

→ k= -7

So, line perpendicular to x=4, which passes through the point (5,7) is →y-7=0 that is y=7.

Option (C) →y=7

Answer:

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

x=4 is a vertical line that goes through the point x=4. y value of this graph changes while x value will be 4 at every point of the graph.

A line perpendicular to this will be a horizontal line with a fixed y value and the x value will change.

The coordinates of the point of which the line has to pass is given as (5,7). Which means the y coordinate of this line is 7.

As we have established that this line has to have same y value at each point just like x=4 has same x value at each point, we can say the equation of the line is y=7.

Activity B (continued from previous page)

Answer:

A. (see Step-by-step explanation)

B. (-1, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Since both functions are equal to </em><em>y</em><em>, we can set them equal to </em><u><em>each other.</em></u>

-x + 3 = 4x + 8

<em>Add the </em><em>x</em><em> to both sides (because it is negative on the left) and subtract the </em><em>8</em><em> from both sides (because it is positive on the right and we need to isolate the variable).</em>

-5 = 5x

<em>Divide both sides by 5 (because it is being multiplied to the </em><em>x</em><em>) to isolate </em><em>x</em><em>.</em>

x = -1

<em>Next, to solve for </em><em>y</em><em>, we can plug in </em><em>-1</em><em> for </em><em>x</em><em> in either equation from the beginning.</em>

y = -(-1) + 3

y = 1 + 3

y = 4

Could somebody please solve this for me?
olchik [2.2K]

Check the picture below.

a+b=180\implies b=180-a \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{substituting on the 2nd equation}}{a-39=2(180-a)}\implies a-39=360-2a\implies 3a-39=360 \\\\\\ 3a=321\implies a = \cfrac{321}{3}\implies \boxed{a = 107}~\hfill \boxed{\stackrel{180-107}{b = 73}}

A cyclist travels 2/3 of his journey at the average speed of 12 miles per hour. He then travels the remaining 30 miles of his jo
natita [175]
If the cyclist traveled 2/3 of his journey already, then the remainder would be 1/3 of his journey, which we know is 30 miles. Double that and we have the miles he traveled during the first 2/3, 60. Then divide 60 by the miles per hour, 12, to get 5 hours. Add in the 3 hours from the remaining 1/3 of the journey and you have your total; the cyclist's trip took 8 hours.
