write a slope-intercept equation for a line passing through the point (5,-4) that is perpendicular to the line 5x+6y=7

Mathematics

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

rearrange 5x + 6y = 7 into this form

subtract 5x from both sides

6y = - 5x + 7 ( divide all terms by 6 )

y = - \frac{5}{6} x + \frac{7}{6} ← in slope-intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{5}{6}

given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m}, hence

m_{perpendicular} = - 1 / - \frac{5}{6} = \frac{6}{5}

y = \frac{6}{5} x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (5, - 4 ) into the partial equation

- 4 = 6 + c ⇒ c = - 4 - 6 = - 10

y = \frac{6}{5} x - 10 ← equation in slope-intercept form

Which ordered pair makes both inequalities true?
Tatiana [17]

The ordered pair which makes both inequalities true is: D. (3, 0).

<h3>How to determine ordered pair?</h3>

In Mathematics, an inequality can be used to show the relationship between two (2) or more integers and variables in an equation.

In order to determine ordered pair which makes both inequalities true, we would substitute the points into the inequalities as follows:

At (0, 0), we have:

y > -2x + 3  

0 > -2(0) + 3

0 > 3 (false).

y < x – 2

0 < 0 - 2

0 < -2 (false)

At (0, -1), we have:

y > -2x + 3  

-1 > -2(0) + 3

-1 > 3 (false).

y < x – 2

-1 < 0 - 2

-1 < -2 (false)

At (1, 1), we have:

y > -2x + 3  

1 > -2(1) + 3

1 > -1 (true).

y < x – 2

1 < 1 - 2

1 < -1 (false)

At (3, 0), we have:

y > -2x + 3  

0 > -2(3) + 3

0 > -3 (true).

y < x – 2

0 < 3 - 2

0 < 1 (true).
