Change the equation of the line to slope-intercept form. 6x + 2y =10 *
allsm [11]

Answer:

Solve for y.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+2y=10

6x+2y-6x=10-6x  subtract 6x from both sides.

2y = -6x+10

2y/2 = -6x/2+10/2  divide each term by 2.

y = -3x+5

Hope this helps!

Find the equation of the line which is perpendicular 10y +5x =3 and passes through (-7,-1)
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

y = 2x +13

Step-by-step explanation:

when 2 lines are perpendicular, the product of the two gradients is -1

i.e. m x m1 = -1

so from 10y + 5x = 3, the gradient m is -0.5

m1 = -1 / -0.5 = 2

using m1 = 2 and pt(-7,-1),

the eqn is y = (m1)x +c

-1 = 2(-7) + c

c= 13

thus y = 2x +13
