The equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1
<h3>Equation of a line</h3>
A line is the shortest distance between two points. The equation of a line in point-slope form and perpendicular to a line is given as;
y - y1 = -1/m(x-x1)
where
m is the slope
(x1, y1) is the intercept
Given the following
Point = (4, -1)
Line: 2x-y - 7 = 0
Determine the slope
-y = -2x + 7
y= 2x - 7
Slope = 2
Substitute
y+1 = -1/2(x -4)
Write in slope-intercept form
2(y + 1) = -(x - 4)
2y+2 = -x + 4
2y = -x + 2
y = -1/2 + 1
Hence the equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(4,6) and (20,14) are points on the line.
slope of line = (14-6)/(20-4) = 8/16= 1/2
point-slope equation for line of slope 1/2 that passes through (6,4):
y-4 = (½)(x-6)
in slope-intercept form:
y = ½x + 1
y-intercept = 1
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x-6)=2(x+3)
multiply
5*x and 5*6. 2*x and 2*3
5x-30=2x+6
minus 5x and 2x
3x-30=6
add 30 to 6
3x=36
divide both sides by 3 and the 3x cancels so 36÷3
x=12
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a 90 degree angle and a 15 degree angle that add up to 105. The angle that is missing can be found by doing 180 - 105 = 75 (since it's a straight line). X is vertical from the 75 degree angle, so 75 is your answer.
