Answer:

y = -1/3x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are perpendicular, the signs of the slope must be opposite and the slopes are reciprocals.

(basically if one is say -2/3, the other is 3/2. just flip it upside down)

So this slope is 3, so the new slope should be -1/3

The equation is now y = -1/3x + b

To find b, substitute (-9,5) in the equation

y = -1/3x + b

5 = -1/3(9) + b

5 = -3 + b

8 = b

So the equation is y = -1/3x + b

Write an explicit formula for the recursive formula <br><br> A(n) = A(n - 1) + 3; A(1) = 6
arsen [322]

Answer:

a_{n} = 3n + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is arithmetic with explicit formula

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

From the recursive formula

a₁ = 6 and d = 3 [ the constant being added to A(n - 1) ] , then

a_{n} = 6 + 3(n - 1) = 6 + 3n - 3 = 3n + 3
