If a line perpendicular to 2y=x+5 that passes through (2,1) using the slope- intercept form

1 answer:

4 0

Slope of 2y = x + 5:-
This is y = 0.5 x + 2.5 in slope intercept form so its slope = 0.5

Slope of the line perpendicular to it = -1 / 0.5 = -2

it passes through (2 , 1) so we have

y- 1 = -2(x - 2)
y = -2x + 4 + 1

The answer is y = -2x + 5

How do you do this equation? 9x+(y)i-5=-12+4

Vaselesa [24]

$9x+yi-5=-12+4\\\\(9x-5)+yi=-13\iff9x-5=-13\ and\ y=0\\\\9x=-13+5\\9x=-8\\x=-\frac{8}{9}\\\\Answer:x=-\frac{8}{9}\ and\ y=0.$

Sam wants to buy 8 pencils and 6 pens, which cost a total of $8.50. He realizes he doesn't have enough cash and instead takes on

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

X = pencils, y = pens

8x + 6y = 8.50
4x + 4y = 5.....multiply by -2
----------------
8x + 6y = 8.50
-8x - 8y = -10 (result of multiplying by -2)
-----------------add
-2y = - 1.50
y = -1.50 / -2
y = 0.75 <=== pens cost 0.75

4x + 4y = 5
4x + 4(0.75) = 5
4x + 3 = 5
4x = 5 - 3
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 0.50 <== pencils cost 0.50
