What is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=3x-2 and passes through the point (6,8)

1 answer:

7 0

Y = 3x - 2 comparing to y = mx + c, slope m = 3

For a perpendicular line, slope is negative reciprocal = -1/3

Using point (6, 8)

y - 8 = (-1/3)(x - 6)

3y - 24 = -x + 6

3y + x = 6 + 24

3y + x = 30

If line uw bisects angle tuv,, m angle tue = (13x-5) and angle wuv = (7x+31) find the value of x

scZoUnD [109]

The value of x will be 6

Explanation

According to the below diagram, UW is the angle bisector of ∠TUV

That means, $\angle TUW = \angle WUV$

Given that, $\angle TUW = 13x-5$ and $\angle WUV= 7x+31$

So, the equation will be......

$13x-5=7x+31\\ \\ 13x-7x=31+5\\ \\ 6x=36\\ \\ x=\frac{36}{6}=6$

So, the value of x will be 6.

Four times the sum of 8 and some number is 4. What is the number?

Lunna [17]

Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{-7}}$

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

$4(x+8)=4$

Dividing both sides by 4,

$x+8=1$

Subtracting 8 from both sides,

$x=-7$

The number is -7.

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$
