Answer:

y = (-1/2)x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

y = 2x-17

which is in slope-intercept form: y = mx +b

Where m is the slope. so, m= 2

But this is perpendicular, When a line is perpendicular then the slope become -1/m so in our case the slope m will be = -1/2

Using the point(-8,1) we can find the b i.e the y intercept

We have x = -8, y =1 and m=-1/2

y = mx + b

1 = (-1/2)(-8) + b

1 = 4 + b

=> b = 1-4

b = -3

The equation of slope intercept form will be

y = mx + b

Putting value of m= -1/2 and b = -3

y = (-1/2)x -3

What is the equation of the line passing through ( -5, -3 ) and perpendicular
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

y = 7/5x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

use the slope from the equation -5/7 and take the negative reciprocal to get the perpendicular slope = 7/5. Then use the equation y=mx+b. Plug in x and y from the point given and the new slope and solve for b.

(-3) = (7/5)(-5) + b, (-3) = -7 + b, add 7 to both sides. b = 4. Rewrite the equation now to be y = 7/5x + 4

Samuel has to sell concert tickets worth at least $90. The price of a child ticket is $8, and the price of an adult ticket is $1
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The second graph is correct, that the line intersects x at 6 and y at 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Samuel has to sell at least $90 for his concert. According to the graph, if Samuel sells only child ticket, he will have to sell 11.5 tickets.

If Samuel sells only adult tickets, he will have to sell at least 6.

The correct graph is the second one, that the line intersects x at 6 and y at 11.5
