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

Part A: Write an equation of a line that is perpendicular to the line y = 2/3x + 5 and passes through the point (4, 0).
Ivahew [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to make a line perpendicular to y=2/3x+5. To do that you have to know that, if we use y=ax+b, a1*a2=-1. That is if a1 and a2 are perpendicular. So we get 2/3*a2=-1. -1/ 2/3=a2. a2=-1.5. We get y=-1.5x+b. Fill in (4,0) on y=-1.5x+b abd we get 0=-1.5(4)+b. b=6

Please help<br> Find the area in square units of ABC△ plotted below.
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Use the distance formula on both points AC and AB.

<em>Distance formula is this</em><em>:</em>

<em>\begin{gathered}d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{(1--5)^2+(8--7)^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{(6)^2+(15)^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{36+225} \\\\d=\sqrt{261} \\\\\end{gathered}d=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2d=(1−−5)2+(8−−7)2d=(6)2+(15)2d=36+225d=261</em>

Distance for AC  is  16.16

Now do the same with the numbers for AB and get the distance of 5.39

2. To get the area, use the formula 1/2 x base x height

AB is the base and AC is the height.

1/2 x 16.16 x 5.39 = 43.55

the answer is 43.5
