a walking path across a park is represented by the equation y=-2x-7. A new path will be built perpendicular to this path.The pat
jonny [76]

Answer:

The equation that represents the new path is y=(1/2)x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the give line

we have

y=-2x-7

so

the slope m is equal to

m=-2

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal of each other

so

we have

m=-2 -----> slope of the given line

therefore

The slope of the perpendicular line is equal to

m=1/2

step 3

With m=1/2 and the point (-2,-3) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y+3=(1/2)(x+2)

y=(1/2)x+1-3

y=(1/2)x-2 -----> equation that represent the new path

-5x/6  + 1=7/18
lowest common multiple=18
-15x+18=7
-15x=7-18
-15x=-11
x=-11/-15=11/15

The solution set is [11/15]

we check it out.
-5(11/15) /6    +  1 =7/18
(-55/15) / 6 +1=7/18
-55/90  +  1=7/18
(-55+90) /90=7/18
35/90=7/18
7/18=7/18
