Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the point (-2,1) and is perpendicular to the equation

3x 18y=4

Let's convert the equation into slope-intercept form.

3x + 18y = 4
Subtract 3x from both sides.
18y= -3x + 4
Divide both sides by 18.
y = -3/18x + 4/18
Simplify.
y = -1/6x + 2/9

To make a line perpendicular, we need the slope to be the reciprocal of the other. Flip the denominator and numerator, and change the sign. We also have to change the b to make the line go through (-2, 1)

-1/6 to +6/1, or 6.

y = 6x + b

Input the x and y values and solve for b.

1 = 6(-2) + b
1 = -12 + b
Add 12 to both sides.
13 = b

y = 6x + 13

Answer:

Sample proportion ; phat

x / n

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample proportion may be explained as a proportional representation of part of the population or larger sample which have a certain character or exhibit a particular trait.

The sample proportion is expressed Mathematically as ;

phat = x / n

x = number of subjects with a specified characteristic ;

n = total sample size

For instance ;

The proportion of black balls in a sample of 100 balls is 15 ; the sample proportion of bla k balls will be :

phat = x / n = 15 / 100 = 0.15

Write the coordinate of the intercept
Basile [38]

Answer:

m = 2/3

y-intercept: 2

Explanation:

First convert this equation into standard form by distributing the 6y and -4x from the coefficient of 2, and then putting the variables in order.

This equation should be in the form: Ax + By = C (Standard form)

y = -Ax/B + C/B : y = mx + b (Slope intercept form)

2(6y - 4x) = 24 → 12y - 8x = 24

→ -8x + 12y = 24 → -8x = -12y + 24 → 8x = 12y - 24 → <em>8x - 12y = -24</em>

<u>8</u>x <u>- 12</u>y = <u>-24</u>

| | |

A B C

Once you have standard form, you are ready to convert this into slope intercept by isolating the y completely.

8x - 12y = -24

-8x -8x

(First through the subtraction property of equality, remove 8x from both sides so that -12y is by itself on the left)

-12y = -8x - 24

×-1 ×-1 ×-1

(Through the identity property of negative 1, remove the negative sign from all of the numbers because a negative times a negative is a positive)

12y = 8x + 24

(Lastly, through the division property of equality, divide all sides by 12 because it is the coefficient of y, which will solve for the variable)
