Write the slope intercept form of an equation that passes through the point and is perpendicular to the graph of the equation (2

Answer:

The perpendicular line would be y = -3/2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to solve the first equation for y.

2x - 3y = 9

-3y = -2x + 9

y = 2/3x - 3

In order to find the equation of this line, we first have to note that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. Therefore, since the original line has a slope of 2/3, we know the new line will have a slope of -3/2. Now we can use that information along with the given point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 4 = -3/2(x - 2)

y + 4 = -3/2x + 3

y = -3/2x - 1

kaheart [24]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

First, we must determine the slope, then we find the y-intercept using slope formula and slope-intercept form.

<u>For slope:</u>

<u />m = \frac{5 + 2}{-3 + 4} = \frac{7}{1} = 7<u />

Slope (m) = 7

<u>For y-intercept:</u>

<u />5 = 7(-3) + b\\\\5 = -21 + b\\\\26 = b<u />

Y-intercept (b) = 26

Using this information, we can now create the equations for this line.

y= 7x + 26\\\\y - 5 = 7(x + 3)

Formulas:

Slope formula: <em>y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁</em>

Slope-intercept form: <em>y = mx + b</em>

Point-slope form: <em>y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)</em>

<em></em>

*Note: (x₁, y₁), (x₂, y₂) = <em>2 points on the line</em>

Find an equivalent system of equations for the following system x + 2y = 2, -4x + 4y = -8
agasfer [191]

Answer:

2x + 4y = 4

-8x + 8y = -16.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find an equivalent system by multiply the 2 equations by 2.

x + 2y = 2  multiplied by 2 is 2x + 4y = 4.

Is 2/3 equivalent to 1/3 if it isn't then which is bigger plz help and will give a thanks
lina2011 [118]
Compare the enumerators because they have the same denominator. 2 is large than 1 so 2/3 is larger than 1/3

Hope this helps!

In triangle ABC, it is given that A = 70 degree, B = 52 degree, BO and CO are the bisectors of angle B and angle C
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Angle OCB= 35 degrees and Angle BOC= 119

Step-by-step explanation:

ANGLE OCB= 1/2 C (Construction of bisector)

= 1/2 70

= 35

ANGLE OBC= 1/2 B (Construction of bisector)

= 1/2 52

= 26

Therefore, in triangle BOC,

180 degree= ANGLE OBC+ANGLE BOC+ANGLE OCB

180= 35+26+ANGLE BOC

180= 61+ANGLE BOC

ANGLE BOC= 180-61

ANGLE BOC= 119

The ratio of the number of dolls Jacky had to the number of dolls Peter had was 5:2 but, after Jacky gave 15 dolls to Peter, the
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

70 dolls

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The ratio is 5:2, which are division of  a whole. They can be represented as 5x and 2x.

Jacky has 5x dolls, and Peter has 2x dolls. They were equal after subtracting 15 dolls from 5x and adding them to 2x.

Equation:

  • 5x - 15 = 2x + 15

Solve:

  • 5x - 15 = 2x + 15
  • 5x - 30 = 2x
  • 5x = 2x + 30
  • 3x = 30
  • x = 10

So Jacky has 5(10) dolls, or 50 dolls, and Peter has 2(10) or 20 dolls.

The total sum is 70 dolls.
