Rearrange the equation into standard form:
x+4y-24=0
bring y over to the other side
x-24=-4y
divide both sides by -4y=- \frac{x}{4}+6
We see that the y-intercept is (0,6) (through y=mx+b)
The formula for perpendicular lines is m_{1} × m_{2} =-1, and they must have a common coordinate (this will be (0,6), the y-intercept).
-1÷-x/4=4x, so the slope of the second line will be 4x.  The y-intercept doesn't change as the lines share a common coordinate, so the final equation of the second equation is y+4x+6

Intersecting on the y axis means x=0.
Plug x=0 in the equation to find out the y value of the intercept> 0+4y-24=0, y=6
so the both line passes the point (0,6)

two perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, that is, if one slope is a/b, the other is -b/a

In this case, the line x+4y-24=0, 4y=-x+24, y=-1/4 x + 6, the slope is -1/4, so the slope of the perpendicular line is 4/1.

the equation is y=4x+6

A recipe requires 1\4 of a cup of cranberries for 1 batch. How many beaches of scones can be made using 6 1/2 cups of cranberrie
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

1 batch is 1/4 cups of cranberries.

This means that we have to find the number of groups of 1/4 in  6 1/2 cups to find the number of batches.

(The decimal forms of these numbers are 6.5 and 0.25)

6.5/0.25=26

There are 26 batches

Which graph represents the function of f(x) = 9x 2 -36/3x+6 Please help
UkoKoshka [18]
The function is:

             (9x^2 - 36)
f(x) = ---------------------
                3x + 6

You can simplify that function to a linear function for all x for which 3x + 6 ≠ 0

=> x ≠ - 2.

So, for x ≠ - 2, you can do:


             (9x^2 - 36)
f(x) = --------------------- =
               3x + 6

              9(x^2 - 4)
f(x) = ---------------------
                3(x + 2)

             3(x + 2)(x - 2)
f(x) = --------------------- = 3(x - 2) = 3x - 6
                 (x + 2)

So, the graph is a right line that intercepts the y-axis at - 6 and the x-axis at x = 2, excluding x = -2 as the function is not defined for x = -2. That is the second graph of the second picture.
