2x-2y=-6

-2y= -2x-6

y=x+3

Y-intercept= 3

X-intercept= -3

to find the intercepts, that is where the graph crosses the x and y axes

• let x = 0, in the equation for y- intercept

• let y = 0, in the equation for x- intercept

x = 0 : 0 - 2y = - 6 ⇔ y = 3 ← y- intercept → (0, - 3)

y = 0 : 2x - 0 = - 6 ⇒ x = - 3 ← x- intercept → (- 3, 0 )

What is the equation for

WARRIOR [948]

The equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is y = –4x – 16.

Solution:

The equation of a line given is y = 0.25x – 7

Slope of the given line( $m_1$ ) = 0.25

Let $m_2$ be the slope of the perpendicular line.

Passes through the point (–6, 8).

<em>If two lines are perpendicular then the product of the slopes equal to –1.</em>

$\Rightarrow m_1 \cdot m_2=-1$

$\Rightarrow 0.25\cdot m_2=-1$

$\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{-1}{0.25}$

$\Rightarrow m_2=-4$

Point-slope intercept formula:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$x_1=-6, y_1=8$ and $m=-4$

Substitute these in the formula, we get

$y-8=-4(x-(-6))$

$y-8=-4(x+6)$

$y-8=-4x-24$

Add 8 on both sides of the equation.

$y-8+8=-4x-24+8$

$y=-4x-16$

Hence the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is

y = –4x – 16
