The equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1
<h3>Equation of a line</h3>
A line is the shortest distance between two points. The equation of a line in point-slope form and perpendicular to a line is given as;
y - y1 = -1/m(x-x1)
where
m is the slope
(x1, y1) is the intercept
Given the following
Point = (4, -1)
Line: 2x-y - 7 = 0
Determine the slope
-y = -2x + 7
y= 2x - 7
Slope = 2
Substitute
y+1 = -1/2(x -4)
Write in slope-intercept form
2(y + 1) = -(x - 4)
2y+2 = -x + 4
2y = -x + 2
y = -1/2 + 1
Hence the equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1

Answer:
x y Negativo tres cuartos Negativo
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<em>AB = 5√2</em>
<em>AC = √145</em>
<em>BC = √65</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the formula for calculating the distance between two points
D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
For AB A(-3,6),B(2,1),
AB = √(2+3)²+(1-6)²
AB = √(5)²+(-5)²
AB = √25+25
AB = √50
<em>AB = 5√2</em>
For AC A(-3,6) and C(9,5)
AC = √(9+3)²+(5-6)²
AC = √(12)²+(-1)²
AC = √144+1
<em>AC = √145</em>
For BC B(2,1), and C(9,5)
BC = √(9-2)²+(5-1)²
BC = √(7)²+(4)²
BC = √49+16
<em>BC = √65</em>
<em></em>
<em>Since All the sides are difference, hence triangle ABC is a scalene triangle</em>
Parentheses first
9q-14+3q-3(8)=7
9q-14+3q-24=7
Combine like terms
9q + 3q - 14 - 24 = 7
12q -38=7
add 38 to both sides
12q - 38 + 38 = 7 + 38
12q = 45
divide both sides by 12
q = 45/12
q = 3.75
