Answer:
The answer to your question is y = 2x + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Original line y = -(1/2)x + 5
Point (-4, 3)
Process
1.- Get the slope of the new line
- Slope of the original line = -1/2
If the lines are perpendicular, the slopes must be reciprocal
-1/2 reciprocal = 2
2.- Get the equation of the new line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 3 = 2(x + 4)
- Simplification
y - 3 = 2x + 8
- Solve for y
y = 2x + 8 + 3
y = 2x + 11
Our equation looks like:
This means that we will need to distribute. This means that we need to multiply everything inside the parenthesis by the number outside of the parenthesis. (<em>Note: you only distribute when variables are involved.)</em>
Simplify:
We cannot simplify any further, so we know that our equation, until we know what x equals, is 
.
Answer:
3b-10=20
Step-by-step explanation:
3b-10=20
3b-10+10=20+10
3b=30
3b/3=30/3
b=10
By substitution.
Get y or x alone then insert it into the other equation solving for one of the two variables. After that substitute ur answer into one of the equations then solve.
