Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line is given with the formula

Using the first two points, (-2, 8) and (-1, 2), we have
m = (2-8)/(-1--2) = -6/(-1+2) = -6/1 = -6
Wish I knew need the same answer
X=3
Explanation:
A straight line equals 180°, and they give you the one angle of 56°, so you know 56+ the other equation has to equal 180
56+4x+112=180
168+4x=180
Subtract 168 from both sides
4x=12
Divide 4 from both sides
X=3
You can check by filling it in.
56+4*3+112=
12+56+112=180
Answer:
y = -
x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange 3x - y = 9 into this form by subtracting 3x from both sides
- y = - 3x + 9 ( divide all terms by - 1 )
y = 3x - 9 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 3
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
, thus
y = -
x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (6, 6) into the partial equation
6 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = 6 + 2 = 8
y = -
x + 8 ← equation of perpendicular line
