The straight line ℓ is perpendicular to the line y + 2x = 9 and passes through the point p(4, 3). find the x-intercept of ℓ.

1 answer:

8 0

The slope of the line l is the opposite reciprocal of y+2x=9. Rearranged the equation to y=9-2x and we get a slope of -2. The opposite reciprocal of -2 is 1/2.

y-y=m(x-x)
y-3=.5(x-4)
y=.5x+1

At the x-intercept, y=0, so
0=.5x+1
-1=.5x
x=-2

Answer:(-4,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Point A (6,-4)

Reflection of Point A about line y=-2 is

A' (6,0)

If any Point is reflected about any line y=constant then its x coordinate remains same

Now reflection of Point A' about x=1 is

A'' (-4,0)

If any point is reflected about line x=constant then its y coordinate remains same
