Could two lines with negative slope be perpendicular? Explain.

No.  For two lines to be perpendicular their slope must be the negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:

m1*m2=-1

So if the slope of one line is negative, the line perpendicular to this must be positive by definition.

18 is ( blank ) % of 30
meriva
Make an equation.

'is' is an equal sign

The blank can be 'x'

'of' = multiplication

18 = x * 30

Multiply:

18 = 30x

Divide 30 to both sides:

x = 0.6

Multiply by 100:

0.6 * 100 = 60%

Find the equation,in standard form, of the line passing through the point (2,-3) and (4,2)
VLD [36.1K]

The standard form:

Ax+By=C

The point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (2, -3) and (4, 2). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{2-(-3)}{4-2}=\dfrac{5}{2}

y-(-3)=\dfrac{5}{2}(x-2)

y+3=\dfrac{5}{2}(x-2)       <em>use distributive property</em>

y+3=\dfrac{5}{2}x-5            <em>multiply both sides by 2</em>

2y+6=5x-10                     <em>subtract 6 from both sides</em>

2y=5x-16         <em>subtract 5x from both sides</em>

-5x+2y=-16          <em>change the signs</em>

\boxed{5x-2y=16}
