Write the slope-intercept form of the equation through (4, 2) perpendicular to y=4x-4

Answer:

y = -1/4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b is the slope-intercept form, which your equation y=4x-4 is already in.

To find the perpendicular line, you must take the <u>negative reciprocal</u> of the slope.

y = -1/4x + b

Your "b" will not be the same as the given equation, since the y-intercepts will not be the same. Therefore, you must solve for it using the point given.

Plug in (4, 2) [general: (x, y)] to the corresponding spots in y = -1/4x + b.

(2) = -1/4(4) + b

2 = -1 + b

b = 3

Now that you know m and b, you can plug all the values back into the form y = mx+b.

**Remember that y and x are never plugged back in! You need two variables to have a linear line

y = -1/4x + 3 is the answer.

Find the missing length indicated. Leave your answer in simplest radical form.
musickatia [10]

Answer:

1). x = 81

2). x = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

1). By applying geometric mean theorem in the given triangle,

   \frac{x}{18\sqrt{14}}= \frac{18\sqrt{14}}{56}

   56x = (18√14)²

   56x = 4536

   x = \frac{4536}{56}

   x = 81

2). By applying geometric mean theorem,

    \frac{x}{8\sqrt{21}}= \frac{8\sqrt{21} }{16}

    16x = (8√21)²

    16x = 1344

    x = \frac{1344}{16}

   x = 84
