Answer:

y=\frac{3}{2}x-11

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation y=-\frac{2}{3}x+5. We are asked to find the equation of line perpendicular to our given equation and passes through point (8,1).

We know that the slope of a perpendicular line to a given line is negative reciprocal of the slope of given line. So the slope of perpendicular line to the line y=-\frac{2}{3}x+5 will be negative reciprocal of -\frac{2}{3}.

\text{negative reciprocal of }-\frac{2}{3}=-(-\frac{3}{2})

\text{negative reciprocal of }-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{3}{2}

Upon substituting m=\frac{3}{2} and coordinates of point (8,1) in slope intercept form of equation we will get,

1=\frac{3}{2}*8+b

1=3*4+b

1=12+b

1-12=12-12+b

-11=b

Therefore, the equation y=\frac{3}{2}x-11 represents the equation of line perpendicular to our given line.

How to find the equation?
bixtya [17]

Answer:

y = 2x + 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the equation for a line: y = mx + b

Where

x and y are points on the graph

and m is the slope, and can be found by finding \frac{rise}{run}


so the slope is 10/5 or 2, since the graph goes up by 10 and over by 5.

so plug into the equation, and you get y = 2x + b

Next, pick a point on the graph, and plug in the x and y coordinates,

for example:

(x,y) = (5,70)

so, 70 = 2(5) + b

then solve for b

60 = b

Then rewrite the equation

y = 2x + 60

katovenus [111]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

3y - 5x = 15   ... A

y = 5/3 * X +15  .... slope 3/5 , y intercept 15

6y - 10x =30

(6y - 10x) /2 = 30 / 2

3y - 5x = 15 ... B

y = 5/3 * x + 15 ..... slope 3/5 , y intercept 15

∴ Answer is C
