In each part that​ follows, you are given an equation of a line and a point. Find the equation of the line through the given poi

nt that is perpendicular to the given line.​ (The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line if the given line is neither vertical nor​ horizontal.)
a) y=9x, P (0, 0)
b) y=3x+4, Q (1, 2)

Answer:

a) y=-\frac{1}{9}x

b)y-2=-\frac{1}{3} (x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation of a line in 3 different forms including slope intercept, point-slope, and standard depending on the information we have. We have a point given and a slope from the equation. We will chose point-slope since we have a point and can find the slope.

Point slope:y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

a) m\neq 9 in our new equation because it is perpendicular to it. This means we will need to change it into its negative reciprocal which is m=-\frac{1}{9}.

We will substitute m=-\frac{1}{9} and x_1=0\\y_1=0.

y-0=-\frac{1}{9} (x-0)

This simplifies to:

y=-\frac{1}{9}x

b) The equation y=3x+4 follows y=mx+b. For the perpendicular line, m\neq 3. We will need to change it into its negative reciprocal which is m=-\frac{1}{3}.

We will substitute m=-\frac{1}{3} and x_1=1\\y_1=2.

y-2=-\frac{1}{3} (x-1)

1) AU (C - B) =
torisob [31]

Answer:

A \cup (C-B) = (A \cup C) \cap  (A \cup B^c)\\A \cup (B \cap C) = (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \,\,\, \text{Here you use double inclusion.}\\A \cup B \cup C =  A \cup (B \cup C)\\B^c \cap (A-C)  = (B^c - C) \cap A\\(B \cap C) - A = (B-A)\cap C\\C-(A\cup B) =  (C - A )\cap B\\A^c \cap (B \cap C) = ( A^c \cap B) \cap C

Step-by-step explanation:

A \cup (C-B) = A \cup (C \cap B^c) = (A \cup C) \cap  (A \cup B^c)\\A \cup (B \cap C) = (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \,\,\, \text{Here you use double inclusion.}\\A \cup B \cup C = (A \cup B ) \cup C  = A \cup (B \cup C)\\B^c \cap (A-C)  = B^c \cap (A \cap C^c) =  (B^c \cap C^c) \cap A =  (B^c - C) \cap A\\(B \cap C) - A = (B \cap C) \cap A^c  = (B \cap C) \cap A^c = (B \cap A^c)\cap C = (B-A)\cap C\\C-(A\cup B) = C \cap (A\cup B)^c = C \cap (A^c \cap B^c ) = (C  \cap A^c )\cap B^c = (C - A )\cap B\\

A^c \cap (B \cap C) = ( A^c \cap B) \cap C
