Answer:
y = -1/2x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x - 3. The slope here is 2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, just flip the slope and change the sign.
slope = 2 or 2/1.....flip it.....1/2....change the sign...-1/2. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -1/2.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = - 1/2
(2,1)....x = 2 and y = 1
now we sub and find b, the y intercept
1 = -1/2(2) + b
1 = -1 + b
1 + 1 = b
2 = b
so ur equation is : y = -1/2x + 2 <===
and u can check it with ur points....(2,1)
y = 2x - 3
1 = 2(2) - 3
1 = 4 - 3
1 = 1 (yep...it checks out)
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
move all terms to the left:
-1.5x+12-(2.5x-12)=0
get rid of parentheses
-1.5x-2.5x+12+12=0
add all the numbers together, and all the variable.
-4x+24=0
move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
-4x=-24
x=-24/-4 - divide
x=+6
Dup= 72 miles
<span>ddown= 120 miles </span>
<span>v= riverspeed </span>
<span>rup= 32mph - v </span>
<span>rdown= 32mph + v </span>
<span>t both ways= t </span>
<span>d=r*t </span>
<span>d/r=t </span>
<span>t=ddown/rdown </span>
<span>t=dup/rup </span>
<span>dup/rup = ddown/rdown </span>
<span>(72)/(32-v)=(120)/(32+v) </span>
<span>3840-120v=2304+72v </span>
<span>1536=192v </span>
<span>v=8</span>
