Answer:

Y= -2x +8

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the line is perpendicular so the slope is negative inverse of 1/2, which is -2.

Now to find b, plug into equation

Y= -2x+ b

2= -2(3) +b

2= -6+ b

2+6= b

8=b

Step-by-step explanation:

-(3)^-4= -1/3 ^4 = -1/81

-(1/3 · 1/3 · 1/3 · 1/3 )= -1/81

If line a is perpendicular to line b and the slope of line a is 7 whats the slope of line b

amm1812

Answer:

If a line is perpendicular to another line, that means that the slope is completely opposite that of the original line. The first thing that we do to the slope is we negate the number which means that if we have a slope of $-7$ our slope because $7$ in this step. In our case our slope is $7$ so in this step it becomes $-7$ .

Moving onto the second part which is to get the reciprocal of the number which means that if we have $\frac{1}{2}$ then we would switch it to $2$ . In our case our number is $-7$ so we would make that into a fraction like this $-\frac{1}{7}$ .
