Answer:

y = 2/5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines are lines which have negative reciprocal slopes of each other.

The line y = -5/2 x + 2 has slope -5/2. Therefore its perpendicular slope will be 2/5.

The equation can cross anywhere on the y-axis for its y-intercept since no specific point is given. Here I chose (0,0).

y = 2/5x

Help me on this math problem please! I’ve been stuck on it for 15 mins now

Reil [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P = perimeter = 114

P =2 * length +2* width

P = 2(2x - 3) + 2(x)

114 = 4x-6 + 2x

114 = 6x -6

19 = x -1

20 = x

check it

2( 2x -3)+2x = ?

4x -6 +2x=?

6x -6 = ?

6(20)-6 =?

120-6 = 114

yep this is correct

What is the equation of the following line written in general form?

strojnjashka [21]

Eq. of line through (1,2) and (4,5) is
$y-y1= \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} (x-x1),
y-2= \frac{5-2}{4-1} (x-1)$ $y-2= \frac{3}{3} (x-1)
y-2=x-1
y-2-x+1=0
y-x-1=0$
x-y+1=0

6m-6=9m+15 (Show work)

9966 [12]

Answer:

$m=-7$

Step-by-step explanation:

$6m-6=9m+15$

Add 6 to both sides:

$6m-6+6=9m+15+6$

$6m=9m+21$

Subtract 9m from both sides:

$6m-9m=9m+21-9m$

$-3m=21$

Divide both sides by -3:

$\frac{-3m}{-3}=\frac{21}{-3}$

$m=-7$
