4 0

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a given line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

Here we are given the line y = -(1/5)x - 9.  The slope is (-1/5).  The negative reciprocal of this is +5.  That's the answer you wanted.

The length of A"B" is 20 units

<h3>How to determine the length of A'B'?</h3>

From the figure, we have:

A = (1, 4)

B = (4, 8)

The distance AB is:

AB = \sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2

So, we have:

AB = \sqrt{(1 -4)^2 + (4-8)^2

Evaluate

AB = \sqrt{25

This gives

AB = 5

The scale factor of dilation is 4.

So, we have:

A'B' = 5 * 4

Evaluate

A'B' = 20

Hence, the length of A"B" is 20 units

2.) y=-3x-1 and if you look closely you’ll notice the line is going down making it negative and it’s going down by 3 so it’s -3x and when your looking for y just remember you’re looking for the point that’s on the line of y and here you can see the point is on -1 so there’s your answer.

no

Step-by-step explanation:

for the equation y=x^2 -6 the line is curved and both points are facing up. A linear pair has to be straight. Therefore, this equation isn't linear
