What is the slope of all lines perpendicular to the line y=(2/3)x+7

Mathematics

Alexandra [31]4 years ago

Answer:

The slope is -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>A line that is perpendicular to another has the slope that has the sign reversed and is the reciprocal. </u>

Example:  Find the line perpendicular to y = 3x

First, you flip the sign which makes 3 into -3

Next, you make the reciprocal which makes -3 into <u>-1/3 </u>

Problem:  Find the line perpendicular to y = (2/3)x + 7

First, you flip the sign which makes 2/3 into -2/3

Next, you make the reciprocal which makes -2/3 into <u>-3/2</u>

Answer:  The slope is -3/2

Answer:

13. A

14. C.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation is a function if there is only one y assigned to each x.

That is if you have a set of points, there should be no repeated x value.

So looking at {(0,0),(-2,4),(-2,-4),(-3,7)} this is not a function because you have two x's that are the same. A.

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The y-intercept is where the graph goes through the y-axis at.  It goes through at -1 so b=-1.

The slope is rise/run.  So starting from the y-intercept (0,-1) we need to find another point to count the rise & run to... How about (3,1)? That works.  You can do the counting if you want. You could also use the slope formula.

To use the slope formula, I just like to line the points up vertically and subtract vertically then put 2nd difference over the 1st difference.

(0,-1)

-(3,1)

--------

-3  -2

So the slope is -2/-3 or just 2/3.

So the equation is y=2/3 x-1

C.

The answer is B.

Since it’s a negative x, the line should go down from left to right and cross the origin.
