The slopes will be opposite reciprocals.

This means that they will be the opposite sign and the reciprocal.

For example, if the slopes of 2 eqautions are 3 and -1/3, they are perpendicular.

If two lines are perpendicular and neither one is vertical, then one of the lines has a positive slope, and the other has a negative slope. ... Theorem 105: If two nonvertical lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocals of one another, or the product of their slopes is −1.

Solve the equation using square roots. 7x2 + 6 = 13
butalik [34]

Answer:

x = ±1

Step-by-step explanation:

=> 7x² = 13-6

=> 7x² = 7

<em>Dividing both sides by 7</em>

=> x² = 1

<em>Taking sqrt on both sides</em>

=> x = ±1

Determine the intercepts of the line that passes through the following points. (-10,-28) , (-6,-21) , ( -2,-14)
____ [38]
The line through (a,b) and (c,d) is

(c-a)(y-b) = (d-b)(x-a)

Picking the last two points,

(-2 - -6)(y - -21) = (-14 - -21)(x - -6)

4(y+21) = 7(x+6)

When x=0

4y + 84 = 42

4y = -42

y = -21/2

Answer: -21/2

We never used the first point, let's check it's on the line


4(y+21) = 7(x+2)


4(-28 + 21) = -28

7(-10 + 6) = -28, good
