Write an equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=-0.3+6 that passes through the point (3,-8)

Mathematics

Sergeu [11.5K]3 years ago

Answer:

y= 10/3 x -18

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines meet the following condition:

m2*m1=-1 (1)

The product of their slope is -1.

From the equation of the first line we can obtain the first slope.

y=-0.3x+6 -> m1=-0.3

Hence, the slope of our desired line is obtained from equation (1).

m2=10/3.

Remember, the equation of a line is given by:

y=mx+b

Now, we need to find the term 'b' and we will do that by evaluating the point (3,-8).

-8=10/3 * 3 +b.

b=-18.

Finally, our desired line has the following equation:

y= 10/3 x -18

Answer:

The blue point will be at (4, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Numbers inside the parenthases only affect x, but are revered. If it is -4, move right 4. lf it is 4, move left 4.

Numbers after the patentheses affect the movement of y. When the point is at (4, 0), move up 3.

Solve the simultaneous equation:<br>2x+3y=13<br><br>X+2y=9​
Neko [114]

Answer:

2x + 3y = 13

4x - y = -2

In the second equation, subtract 4x from both sides.

-y = -2 - 4x

Divide both sides by -1.

y = 2 + 4x

Put this into the first equation in place of y.

2x + 3(2 + 4x) = 13

Multiply everything in the parenthesis by 3.

2x + 6 + 12x = 13

Combine like terms.

14x + 6 = 13

Subtract 6 from both sides.

14x = 7

Divide 14 on both sides.

x = 7 / 14

x = 0.5

Put this into the second equation in place of x.

4(0.5) - y = -2

2 - y = -2

Subtract 2 from both sides.

-y = -4

Divide both sides by -1.

y = 4

So x = 0.5 and y = 4.
