Find the slope intercept equation of the line perpendicular to the line 2X-5y=6 and containing the point (2,2)

Answer:

The equation of the perpendicular line would be y = -5/2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this line, we must first find the slope of the original line. We do this by solving for y.

2x - 5y = 6

-5y = -2x + 6

y = 2/5x - 6/5

This shows us a slope of 2/5. TO find the perpendicular slope, we use the opposite and reciprocal. This means we negate 2/5 to get -2/5 and then we flip it to get -5/2. Now that we have this, we can use the slope and the point in point-slope form to get the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -5/2(x - 2)

y - 2 = -5/2x + 5

y = -5/2x + 7

Lee buys a computer and a printer for $2,028 The printer costs 30% the price of the computer. What is the price of the computer?
lisov135 [29]

Answer: $1,560

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the computer's price is x.

This means that expressing the printer in terms of x would be:

= 30% * x

= 0.3x

These two put together represent the cost of $2,028

Expression is:

x + 0.3x = 2,028

1.3x = 2,028

x = 2,028/ 1.3

x = $1,560

Computer was $1,560

Printer was therefore:

= 1,560 * 30%

= $468
