x = 14
Explanation:height = x
base 1 = 98
base 2 = 2
Using altitude formula in geometric mean:
base 1/height = height/base 2
98/x = x/2
Answer:
A. y = 2x -9
B. y = -1/2x +1
Step-by-step explanation:
The given line is in slope-intercept form
y = mx + b
where m is the slope. For your given line, the slope is 2.
A. A parallel line will have the same slope. It is convenient to start with a point-slope form of the equation for the line:
y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . for slope m through point (h, k)
You want the equation of the line through (4, -1) with slope 2, so its equation is ...
y = 2(x -4) -1
Simplifying to slope-intercept form, this becomes ...
y = 2x -8 -1
y = 2x -9
___
B. A perpendicular line will have a slope that is the opposite of the reciprocal of the slope of the given line. That slope is ...
m = -1/2
As above, the point-slope form of the perpendicular line is ...
y = -1/2(x -4) -1
y = -1/2x +1 . . . . . after simplification
