Question-

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (6,-8) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is Y=2/3 x+3

Answer-

y = x/2 + 3......x/2 is the same as 1/2x....so u have a slope of 1/2.

A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, flip the slope and change the sign. So we have 1/2....and we flip it making it 2/1....and we change the sign making it -2/1 or just -2. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of -2.


y = mx + b

slope(m) = -2

(1,8)...x = 1 and y = 8

now we sub and find b, the y int

8 = -2(1) + b

8 = -2 + b

8 + 2 = b

10 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -2x + 10 <==


Hope i helped have a wonderful day...

Write the equation x² + 6x + y² – 8y = 19 in standard form.
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Formula used :

  • <u>x²+2xy+y²</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>(x+y)²</u>
  • <u>x²-2xy+y²</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>(x-y)²</u>

→{x}^{2}  + 6x +  {y}^{2}  - 8y = 19 \\  ({x}^{2}  + 2.3.x +  {3}^{2} ) +({y}^{2}  - 2.4.y +  {4}^{2} ) = 19 +  {3}^{2}  +  {4}^{2}  \\  {(x + 3)}^{2}  +  {(y - 4)}^{2}  = 19 + 9 + 16 \\  \boxed{ {(x + 3)}^{2}  +  {(y - 4)}^{2}  = 44}✓

  • <u>3) (x+3)²+(y-4)²=44</u> is the right answer.
