Which of the following is the equation of a line perpendicular to the line Y=-1/3x+1, passing through the point (2,7)?

1 answer:

5 0

Y= 3X + 1. Perpendicular means you would change the slope by flipping it and changing the sign. So the slope then becomes 3. Then you use your points to find the y-intercept by filling in the variables. 7=3(2) + B. 7=6 + B. Then subtract 6 from both sides. B=1. Then you just put your problem back into slope intercept form with your new slope and y-intercept. Y=3x + 1.

Alika [10]

Answer:

y = -2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

-15 = -2(6) + b

-15 = -12 + b

b = -3

y = -2x - 3

City R has a temperature of -2 degrees. City S has a temperature of -6 degrees. Write an inequality to compare the temperatures

elena-s [515]

Answer:

-2 > -6 . . . or . . . R > S

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plot the temperatures of the two cities on a number line, you see that the temperature for City R is plotted to the right of the temperature for City S. This means the temperature of City S is less than that of City R.

If your inequality relates cities:

S < R or R > S

If your inequality relates temperatures:

-6 < -2 or -2 > -6
