Equation of perpendicular line: Equation of parallel line:

Mathematics
1 answer:
tamaranim1 [39]3 years ago
8 0

1)Parallel means they have to have the same slope. Since our equation is y=2/3x+1, a line parallel to that would be(using out points) -5=2/3(-4)+b.

To find the y-intercept, solve for "b".

b=-7/3

Our equation would then be y=2/3x-7/3

2)Perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes. our previous equation was y=2/3x+1, so our new equation would be -5=-3/2(-4)+b. Now lets solve for b.

b=-11

So our perpendicular equation would be y=-3/2x-11

Hope that was helpful. :)

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

If is given the value -8 as it is the input then -->

y = -4(-8) + 3

Negative four times negative 8 is positive 32 so

y= 32 + 3

And 32 plus 3 is 35

Elden [556K]

Using the given formula T = LS

And given the time is 3 minutes (3 x 60 = 180 seconds)and the speed is 4-1/2 inches per second:

180 = L x 4-1/2

Solve for L by dividing both sides by 4-1/2:

L = 180 / 4-1/2

L = 40

The length should be 40 inches.

What are the solutions of the equation (x-3)2 + 2(x – 3) - 8= 0? Use u substitution to solve.
astraxan [27]

Answer:

x = - 1 and x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x - 3)² + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0

Let u = x - 3, then

u² + 2u - 8 = 0 ← solve for u

(u + 4)(u - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for u

u + 4 = 0 ⇒ u = - 4

u - 2 = 0 ⇒ u = 2

Convert back to x, that is

x - 3 = - 4 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = - 1

x - 3 = 2 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = 5
