A triangle with a base of 2 and a height of 3.

Double the base and it becomes 4, and double the height and it becomes 6.

Area of the new figure = 1/2 * base * height = 1/2 * 4 * 6 = 2 * 6 = 12

The area of a towelette with double the base and double the height is 12 inches^2.

Find an equation of the line passing through the point ( 6 , − 4 ) (6,-4) and perpendicular to 9 x − 3 y = 9 9x-3y=9 . Write you

MrMuchimi

Answer:

$y =-\frac{1}{3}-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

A point (6, -4)
An equation of a line, 9x - 3y = 9

We are required to determine the equation a line passing through a point (6, -4) and perpendicular to the given line;

To answer the question we need to get the gradient of the given line first.
We write the equation 9x - 3y = 9 in the form of y = mx + c, where m is the slope;

That is;

y = 3x -3

Thus, the slope of the line is 3

But; m₁ × m₂ = -1 (For perpendicular lines)

Therefore;

m₂ = -1 ÷ 3

= -1/3

Therefore, the slope of the line in question is -1/3 and the line passes through (6, -4).

To get its equation, we get another point (x, y)

Then;

$\frac{y+4}{x-6}=\frac{-1}{3}$

Thus;

$3(y+4) = -1(x-6)\\3y + 12 = -x+6$

In the form of slope-intercept, the equation will be;

$3y = -x - 6\\y =-\frac{1}{3}-2$

Thus, the equation of the line is;

$y =-\frac{1}{3}-2$
