<u><em>y = -4/3x - 7 is the answer</em></u>

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0 or (0,y))

Since you know m = -4/3, plug it into the equation

y = -4/3x + b

To find "b", plug in the point into the equation

y = -4/3x + b

1 = -4/3(-6) + b

1 = 24/3 + b

1 = 8 + b

-7 = b

y = -4/3x - 7

Question 1 (5 points)

Mila [183]

Answer:

AB and CD would be 30

AC and BD would be 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor is what you multiply the sides by. Dilate means wider or larger so you multiply each side by the scale factor of 2 to get the higher scaled rectangle.

A line through the origin has a slope of 1 / 3. Carlos thinks the slope of a perpendicular line at the origin will be 3.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Carlos is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a line through the origin has a slope of $\frac{1}{3}$ . Carlos thinks the slope of a perpendicular line at the origin will be 3.

We know that the slope of a perpendicular line to a given line is always negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

The slope of the perpendicular line at the origin will be negative reciprocal of $\frac{1}{3}$ .

Let us find negative reciprocal of $\frac{1}{3}$ as:

$-\frac{1}{\frac{1}{3}}=-\frac{1\cdot 3}{1}=-3$

Since the slope of a perpendicular line at the origin is $-3$ , therefore, Carlos is incorrect.
