Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>
Answer: y = 10</h3>
=====================================
Work Shown:
EI = EG
3y-10 = 2y
3y-10-2y = 0
y-10 = 0
y = 0+10
y = 10
Note how if y = 10, then
- EI = 3y-10 = 3*10-10 = 20
- EG = 2y = 2*10 = 20
Both EI and EG are 20 units long when y = 10. This confirms the answer.
A line perpendicular to y = -2x + 5 will have an equation in the form of:
y = (1/2)x + b
Since the graph must intersect (-2,9), we plug in this point to solve for b.
9 = (1/2)*(-2) + b
9 = -1 + b
10 = b
So the equation is:
y = (1/2)x + 10
The answer is A.
