Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

$4-(x+1) =6$

Distribute the negative

$4 - x - 1 = 6$

Combine like terms on Left Hand Side

$- x + 3 = 6$

Substract 3 from both sides

$-x = 3$

Divide both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative

∴ $x = - 3$

She is incorrect. It doesn’t matter what sides you label a or b but c matters. The longest side (the hypotenuse) is always c.

3x - 6 less than or equal to -3 on a graph

g100num [7]

I believe that -3 is less than 3x-6 because if you look at their graph -3’s graph is below 3x-6 graph

what is the equation in slope intercept form of the line that goes through (2,4) and is perpendicular to the line represented by

Andrej [43]

Answer:

$y = \frac{3x}{2}+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a straight line equation is y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept of the line.

Now, we know that if two straight lines are perpendicular to each other then the product of their slopes will be -1.

So, the equation of a straight line which is perpendicular to the line $y = -\frac{2x}{3} +6$ will be $y= \frac{3x}{2}+ c'$ ....... (1), where c' is constant.

Given that the line (1) passes through (2,4) point.

Hence, $4 = \frac{3(2)}{2} +c'$

⇒ c' = 1.

Therefore, the final equation of the required straight line is $y = \frac{3x}{2}+1$ . (Answer)
