a) find the slope of the line using the given points.
Slope: 9 - -3/6-0 then slope is 12/6 which is 2
Then using formula: y = mx+b
-3 = 2(0) + b
b = -3
The equation is: y = 2x -3
B. Slope of a perpendicular is -reciprocal of first line. So here the slope will be -1/2
y = mx + b is used again
2 = -1/2(0) + b
b = 2
The equation is: y = -1/2x +2
Answer:
1. I am not sure about the first one. I tried everything and nothing I got from any of my work is looking right.
2. AB = 5
3. 8
