Answer:
x = -2bm/(m²+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
One line has equation
... y = mx + b
The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line. The perpendicular line with the opposite y-intercept has equation
... y = (-1/m)x - b
The point of intersection is where the x- and y-values are equal, so ...
... mx + b = (-1/m)x - b
... (m +1/m)x = -2b . . . . . . . add 1/m - b to both sides
... (m²+1)x = -2bm . . . . . . . multiply by m
... x = -2bm/(m²+1) . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
Answer:
x = -13/5
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the number
8x + 6 = 3x - 7
move variables to left and numbers to right
8x - 3x = - 7 -6
5x = -13
x = -13/5
Answer: X intercepts none Y intercepts (0,14)
