Answer:
The equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line that passes through the point (-4, 2) is y = -9·x/5 + 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The coordinates of the point of intersection of the two lines = (5, 9)
The coordinates of a point on one of the two lines, line 1 = (-4, 4)
The slope of a line perpendicular to another line with slope, m = -1/m
Therefore, we have;
The slope, m₁, of the line 1 with the known point = (9 - 4)/(5 - (-4)) = 5/9
Therefore, the slope, m₂, of the line 2 perpendicular to the line that passes through the point (-4, 4) = -9/5
The equation of the line 2 is given as follows;
y - 9 = -9/5×(x - 5)
y - 9 = -9·x/5 + 9
y = -9·x/5 + 9 + 9
y = -9·x/5 + 18
Therefore, the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line that passes through the point (-4, 2) is y = -9·x/5 + 18.
Answer:
6.29
Step-by-step explanation:
so you know that the unknown side which is 7x + 27 equals 71.
You can begin by subtracting 27 from 71 which will give you 44.
you then know that 44 = 7x
then you just have to do 44 divided by 7 to find x which isss...
look above at answer
The answer is: y = -2x+12
4x+2y=24=
4x-4x+2y=24-4x=
2y=24-4x
Divide each piece by 2=
2y/2=24/2-4x/2
y=12-2x
But, slope intercept form is y=mx + b so you must put the second part in reverse, making the answer to the equation be y=-2x+12
(Don't forget the - on -2)
