Answer:

y + 3 = -\frac{2}{3}(x-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines are lines which intersect at 90 degrees which have negative reciprocal slopes. The slope of the line y = 3/2x + 2 is 3/2. The slope of the line perpendicular to it will be -2/3. Substitute m = -2/3 and (6,-3) into the point slope form of a line.

y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y - -3 = -\frac{2}{3}(x-6)\\y + 3 = -\frac{2}{3}(x-6)

What is the slope of a line? With the equation d=420-65t
9966 [12]

The slope is the change in y divided by the change in x.

The slope is the ratio of rise to run.

The slope is the rate of change of the function at a certain point.

The slope is the first derivative of a function.



Accordingly, the slope of this line <span>d=420-65t is the coefficient of variable "t" if we consider that d for the dependent variable and t for the independent


Therefore

slope = - 65

I hope you got the idea

Find the two numbers whose sum is 29 and whose difference is 15.
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

a = 22

b = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be represented as a and b.

a + b = 29

a - b = 15

Using elimination method

Add both equations

2a = 44

Divide both sides by 2 to get a

2a/2 = 44/2

a = 22

Now substitute a = 22 in any of the equations to get b .

Using the first equation, we have

a + b = 29

22 + b = 29

Subtract 22 from both sides of the equation

22 - 22 + b = 29 - 22

b = 7

Therefore the two numbers are 22 and 7
