We know that a line is perpendicular to another line if one slope is the opposite reciprocal  of the other. So, the slope of the line perpendicular to y=1/2x-3 would by -2/1 or -2. Now, to find the y intercept, plug in the coordinate (1, -1) to the equation y = -2x + b. 

-1 = -2(1) + b
 
-1 = -2 + b

1 = b

Now we know the y intercept and slope of the new line, which is enough to make the equation. y = -2x + 1 is your answer. 

Hope this helps!! :)

Y = 1/2x - 3. Slope here is 1/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip the slope and change the sign. So the perpendicular line will have a slope of -2.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(1,-1)...x = 1 and y = -1
now we sub and find b, the y int
-1 = -2(1) + b
-1 = -2 + b
-1 + 2 = b
1 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -2x + 1

Consider the relation y=x^3+2x^2-9x+18/x+3
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

a) y=\frac{x^{3}+2x^{2} -9x+18}{x+3} .

Substitute all the values in the given relation.

The steps and table is attached below.

b) The relation is not a function.

Since the x =0 and x=3 has the same value. A relation is  function when each input has only exact one output. refer the on-to diagram uploaded.

c) The domain is the set of all input values that can be applied into a function y or f(x).

Here all the x values -4,-3,-,-1,0,1,2,3,4 [-4,4] is the domain.

The sum of any two consecutive prime numbers is also prime
jek_recluse [69]
Let's consider two prime numbers where each is larger than 2

Say the primes 7 and 11. Adding them gets us 7+11 = 18. This counter example disproves the initial claim since 18 = 9*2 = 6*3 making 18 composite (not prime)

In general, if we let p and q be two primes such that q > p > 2 and q is the next prime after p, then p and q are both odd. If any of them were even then they wouldn't be prime (2 would be a factor)

Adding any two odd numbers together leads to an even number

Proof:
p = 2k+1 where k is some integer
q = 2m+1 where m is some integer
p+q = 2k+1+2m+1 = 2(k+m) + 2 = 2(k+m+1) which is in the form of an even number

That proof above shows us that adding any prime larger than 2 to its next prime up leads to an even number. This further shows us that the claim is false overall. It is only true if you restrict yourself to the primes 2 and 3, which add to 5. Otherwise, the claim is false.
