Answer:

\large\boxed{x=-\dfrac{1}{5}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{a-x}{x-a}=5x\\\\\dfrac{(a-x)}{-(a-x)}=5x\qquad\text{cancel}\ (a-x)\\\\-1=5x\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\-\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{5x}{5}\to\boxed{x=-\dfrac{1}{5}}

choose the equation in point slope form for the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passing through the given point
alexdok [17]

We want to determine the equation in point slope form for the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passing through the point (5.6) .

The equation and the point is;

y=\frac{2}{3}x+9,(5,6)

We know that for two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes should be -1.

Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular should be;

m=-\frac{1}{(\frac{2}{3})}=-\frac{3}{2}

The second condition is that the line must pass through the point (5,6) , to do thid, we write the equation of the line in point slope form which is;

y-y_1=m(x-x_{1_{}})

Inserting all values, we have,

y-6=.-\frac{3}{2}(x-5)

That is the final answer.
