Write the equation of the line perpendicular to + = that passes through (−,−). Write your answer in slope-intercept form.
1 answer:
Answer:
y = 0.25x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given line is 4x + y = 3
or y = -4x + 3
Comparing this with slope-intercept form y = mx + c :
slope of this line is -4
Product of slopes of perpendicular lines = -1
⇒ slope of a line perpendicular to this is =
= 0.25
This line also passes through the point (-4,-6)
The equation of a line having slope m and passing through a point (h,k) is
y - k = m(x - h)
⇒ equation of line perpendicular to given line is y - (-6) = 0.25×{x - (-4)}
⇒ y + 6 = 0.25×(x + 4)
⇒ y + 6 = 0.25x + 1
⇒ <u>y = 0.25x - 5</u>
This is in the slope-intercept form y = mx + c with slope m = 0.25 and y-intercept (0,-5)

Answer:
General equation of line : --1
Where m is the slope or unit rate
Table 1)
p d
1 3
2 6
4 12
d = Number of dollars (i.e.y axis)
p = number of pound(i.e. x axis)
First find the slope
First calculate the slope of given points
---A
Substitute values in A
Thus the unit rate is 3 dollars per pound.
So, It matches the box 1 (Refer the attached figure)
Equation 1 :
Since p is the x coordinate and d is the y coordinate
On Comparing with 1
Thus the unit rate is dollars per pound
So, It matches the box 2 (Refer the attached figure)
Equation 2 :
Since p is the x coordinate and d is the y coordinate
On Comparing with 1
Thus the unit rate is 9 dollars per pound
So, It matches the box 3 (Refer the attached figure)
Table 2)
p d
1/9 1
1 9
2 18
d = Number of dollars (i.e.y axis)
p = number of pound(i.e. x axis)
Substitute values in A
Thus the unit rate is 9 dollars per pound
So, It matches the box 3 (Refer the attached figure)
