Answer:
x = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
(2,5)
(x,3)
m = 1/2
Formula
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
Solution
y2 = 3
y1 = 5
x2 = x
x1 = 2
1/2 = (3 - 5)/(x - 2) Cross multiply
1*(x - 2) = 2 (-2) Combine and remove the brackets.
x - 2 = - 4 Add 2 to both sides
x = - 4 + 2
x = - 2
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
4x3-2=10>4
so it is true
Perpendicular means the slopes are opposite inverse of each other
If line a is slope 2, the perpendicular line to Line a would have a slope - 1/2
Difference in y over difference in x gives slope. If they are opposite inverse values the lines are perpendicular. ( in this case the answer is true.)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The number 2 goes into both 12 and 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
12 ÷ 2 is 6 and 14 ÷2 is 7 . You can't really simplify 14 by any other whole number besides 2 or 7 .
