Lots took one hour to drive from his apartment to philips arena and back. the return drive took 8 minutes less than the trip to

noname [10]

The equation would use to determine how long he drove each way is 2x - 8 = 60.

<h3>What is the equation?</h3>

The equation is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are equal.

We have been given that Lots took one hour to drive from his apartment to Philips arena and back. the return drive took 8 minutes less than the trip to the arena.

Since the return trip took 8 minutes less, the complete equation must be written in minutes.

Here x - 8 represents the time it took to return to Philips Arena.

The total travel time, including both directions, was 60 minutes;

thus, add x and x - 8 and set them both equal to 60.

So 2x - 8 = 60

Therefore, the equation would use to determine how long he drove each way is 2x - 8 = 60.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point ( 6 , − 2 ) (6,−2) and is perpendicular to the line 6 x + y = 2 6x

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

An equation of the line that passes through the point (6, − 2) and is perpendicular to the line will be:

$y=\frac{1}{6}x-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Given the line

6x+y=2

Simplifying the equation to write into the slope-intercept form

y = -6x+2

So, the slope = -6

As we know that the slope of the perpendicular line is basically the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line.

Thus, the slope of the perpendicular line will be: -1/-6 = 1/6

Therefore, an equation of the line that passes through the point (6, − 2) and is perpendicular to the line will be

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

substituting the values m = 1/6 and the point (6, -2)

$y-\left(-2\right)=\frac{1}{6}\left(x-6\right)$

$y+2=\frac{1}{6}\left(x-6\right)$

subtract 2 from both sides

$y+2-2=\frac{1}{6}\left(x-6\right)-2$

$y=\frac{1}{6}x-3$

Therefore, an equation of the line that passes through the point (6, − 2) and is perpendicular to the line will be:

$y=\frac{1}{6}x-3$
