Answer:
4x +y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are the negative reciprocals of one another. When the equation of the line is written in standard form like this, the equation of the perpendicular line can be written by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. Doing this much would give you ...
4x +y = (constant)
Note that we have chosen to make the equation read 4x+y, not -4x-y. The reason is that "standard form" requires the leading coefficient to be positive.
Now, you just need to make sure the constant is appropriate for the point you want the line to go through. So, it needs to be ...
4(2) +(-5) = constant = 3
The line of interest has equation ...
4x + y = 3
Your estimate of the baby pig's weight is 2 pounds. However the actual weight of it is only 16 pounds.
Let's solve for the percentage error of this.
=> 20 - 16 = 4 pounds
=> 4 / 16 = 0.25
=> 0.25 * 100% = 25%
Thus, you added 25% of the baby pig's weight
Answer:
1. Calculate the slope from 2 points.
2. Substitute either point into the equation.
3.Solve for b, which is the y-intercept of the line.
4. Substitute b, -1, into the equation from step 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
I gave you one extra than what you expected, if thats ok.
Hope this helps : )
Answer below as attachment. m=520
Y - 9 = 15x - 75
y = 15x - 75 + 9
y = 15x - 66 y = mx + c, slope = m
m = slope = 15
