Answer:

y= 2x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you should know is that the slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal. So, this is your current equation: y= 2x + b. Next, substitute your point into the equation to get the y-intercept. It should look like this: 9=2(6) + b. 6 times 2 equals 12. Now, this is what it should look like: 9=12 + b. Subtract 12 from both sides to get -3 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug in -3 to b. This is your final equation: y= 2x -3. Hope this helped!

Solve the following system. x 2 - y = 3 x - y = -3 The solution set

Tpy6a [65]

Hello :
<span>x²- y = 3 ...(1)
x - y = -3 ...(2)
by (2) : y = x+3
subqct in (1) : x²-x-3 = 3
x²-x-6 =0
(x+2)(x-3) = 0
x+2 =0 or x-3 =0
x=-2 or x=3
if x = -2 y = -2+3 = 1
if x=3 y =3+3 = 6
two solutions : ( -2, 1) , (3,6)</span>
