Determine the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is x - 2y = 6.

Mathematics

Degger [83]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The answer is -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We first start by removing x in order isolate the y variable

2y = 6 - x

y = \frac{6-x}{2}

Further, we simplify the equation in order to get the value of m (slope)

y = 3 + \frac{-1x}{2}

Therefore, our slope is equivalent to -1/2

what is an equation of the line perpendicular to y+1=-3(x-5) and passes through (4,-6)? please help quick
Fiesta28 [93]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is -3. Since perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, the slope of the line we need to find is 1/3.

Substituting into point slope form, we get:

y + 6 = ⅓(x+6)

The table below shows two equations:
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The solutions to equation 1 are x = 3, −1.5, and equation 2 has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the two equations, you get ...

  • |4x -3| = 9 . . . . . has two solutions
  • |2x +3| = -5 . . . . has no solutions (an absolute value cannot be negative)

The above-listed answer is the only one that matches these solution counts.

_____

Testing the above values of x reveals they are, indeed, solutions to Equation 1.
