Answer: the equation is

y = x/4 -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the following equation

Slope-intercept equation is

y= mx + c

Point: (−4,−3)

Equation: 4x+y=7

For two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes, m1 and m2 must be equal to -1

From the given equation, 4x+y=7

y = 7-4x, y= -4x +7.

slope,m1 = -4

Slope of second perpendicular line

=m2

m1 × m2 =-1

4 × m2= -1

m2=-1/-4= 1/4

y = x/4+ c

From the points (−4,−3) given,

y = -3 and x = -4

Substituting in the equation, y = -x/4+ c,

-3= 1/4×-4 + c

-3 = -1+c

c = -3+1 = -2

So the equation is

y = x/4 -2

The perpendicular equation would include a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the original slope.

Steps:
1. Get x to the other side in the original equation. This making the slope -4 or -4/1.

2. Turn the slope into it’s opposite reciprocal m = 1/4.

3. If you use point-slope form, y - y1 = m( x - x1 ), you can substitute y1 and x1 with the numbers in the point given. But since we previously found the opposite reciprocal, we will replace “m” as well. *By the way, the subtraction of a negative makes a positive. [y + 3 = 1/4( x + 4 )]

4. Solve:
A: Distribute (y + 3 = 1/4x + 1)
B: Subtract 3 from both sides (y = 1/4x -2)

Perpendicular Equation: y = 1/4x - 2

Find the value of y in the solution to the system of equations shown.<br> y= 12x+7<br> y=-6x+25
padilas [110]

Answer:  The required value of y is 19.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the value of y in the solution to the following system of equations :

y=12x+7~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\y=-6x+25~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

Comparing equations (i) and (ii), we get

12x+7=-6x+25\\\\\Rightarrow 12x+6x=25-7\\\\\Rightarrow 18x=18\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{18}{18}\\\\\Rightarrow x=1.

From equation (i), we get

y=12\times1+7=12+7=19.

Thus, the required value of y is 19.

Part A)
The table doesn't represent y as a function of x.
Why? <span>One reason is that 1 or 3 is the first element in more than one ordered pair.
 Part B)
f(x) = 10x + 20
f(120)= 10*120 + 20 = 1200 + 20 = 1220

Quadrilateral EFGH with diagonals EG and HF must be a parallelogram if (1) EF FG  and GH HE  (2) EG FH  (3) EG FH  (4) EF HG
qwelly [4]

Answer:

EF = HG and EF || HG

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadrilateral is a polygon shape with four sides and four angles.

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. The following are properties of a parallelogram:

  1. Opposite sides are equal and parallel.
  2. Opposite angles are equal to each other.
  3. Consecutive angles are supplementary
  4. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

If Quadrilateral EFGH with diagonals EG and HF is a parallelogram then EF = HG and EF || HG

A rugby team played six games.
Schach [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

mean score means the sum of all 6 scores divided by the number of games : 6.

sum6/6 = 15

sum6 = 15×6 = 90

(sum6 + x)/7 = 16

sum6 + x = 16×7 = 112

90 + x = 112

x = 22

they scored 22 points in the 7th game.
