Answer:

y = - 2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = \frac{1}{2} x - 7 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{1}{2}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{\frac{1}{2} } = - 2, hence

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation of the perpendicular line

To find c substitute (4, - 3) into the partial equation

- 3 = - 8 + c ⇒ c = - 3 + 8 = 5

y = - 2x + 5 ← equation of perpendicular line

If f(x) = 2x2 + 1 and g(x) = x2 - 7, find (f + g)(x).​
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

(f+g)(x) = 3x^{2} - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets understand what (f+g)(x) means.

(f+g)(x) is when you are taking the values in the function f(x) and adding it to the values in the function g(x).

So, this is what the equation looks like when you substitute the functions in to (f+g)(x):

(f+g)(x) = (2x^{2} +1) + (x^{2}  -7)

Now, combine like terms and Simplify:

(f+g)(x) = 3x^{2} - 6

This is your final answer.

If m<6 = (3x-13)° and m<8 = (2x-5°), what is the value of x
mestny [16]

Answer:

<h2>The value of x is 8.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that m\angle 6 = m \angle 8

Each angle is defined as

m\angle 6 = 3x-13 and m \angle 8 =2x-5

Replacing all in the first equation, we have

3x-13=2x-5\\3x-2x=13-5\\x=8

Therefore, the value of x is 8.

(5y-2y^2+9) + (3y^2-12-3y)
REY [17]

Answer:

y = -3 or 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve the polynomials, you need to add them and then factor:

5y - 2y² + 9 + 3y² - 12 - 3y

Combine like terms:  y² + 2y - 3

Factor:  (y + 3)(y - 1)

Solve for y:  y + 3 = 0  and y - 1 = 0  or y = -3 or 1
