--------------------------------------------------------------
Find Slope
--------------------------------------------------------------
4x + 2y = 2
2y= -4x + 2
y = -4/2 x + 2
y = -2x + 2

Slope = -2
Perpendicular slope = 1/2

--------------------------------------------------------------
Insert slope into the general equation y = mx + c
--------------------------------------------------------------
y = 1/2x + c

--------------------------------------------------------------
Find y-intercept
--------------------------------------------------------------
y = 1/2x + c
at (5,6)
6 = 1/2 (5) + c
6 = 5/2 + c
c = 6 - 5/2
c = 7/2

--------------------------------------------------------------
Insert y-intercept into y = 1/2 x + c
--------------------------------------------------------------
y = 1/2 x + 7/2
2y = x + 7

--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 2y = x + 7
--------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:

6 : 11

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio 6 : 11 applies to all linear measure in the similar polygons

Both side lengths and perimeter are linear, hence

ratio of both is 6 : 11

Please help work this equation

Flauer [41]

Hi!

<u>Given these two equations:</u>

$x = y + 8$

$x + 4 = 2(y + 4)$

We want to solve using the substitution method. Knowing that x is equal to y + 8, we can simply plug in 'y + 8' in for x in the second equation, like so:

$(y+8)+4=2(y+4)$

Combine like terms on both sides:

$y+12=2y+8$

Subtract y from both sides:

$12=y+8$

Subtract 8 from both sides:

$y=4$

Now, we can simply plug the y value in to the first equation, and solve for x:

$x=4+8$

Simplify:

$x=12$

<h3>Therefore, x is equal to 12 and y is equal to 4.</h3>

Solve 3x2 + 4x = 2. TEACH me how to solve this.. I know what to do once I have it in the right forum... but I do not understand

sertanlavr [38]

So if it is 3x^2+4x=2 then
set one side to zero
subtract 2 from both sides
3x^2+4x-2=0
this is not factorable by normal means so use quadratic formula which is if you have the equation in ax^2+bx+c=0 form you can solve for x if you put it into this equation quadratic formula $x=\frac{-b+ \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} or \frac{-b- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$ so if you were to input it into this equation you would get
a=3
b=4
c=-2

the solution is $x= \frac{-2+ \sqrt{10} }{3} or \frac{-2- \sqrt{10} }{3}$
the answer is C

Answer:

X=3,1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x²-(12+1)x+3=0

or,4x²-12x-x+3=0

or,4x(x-3)-1(x-3)=0

or,(4x-1)(x-3)=0

Either,4x-1=0➡️ 4x=1

X=1/4

OR,x-3=0➡️ X=3
