Find an equation of the line L that passes through the point (2,-12) and satisfies the given condition.

Answer:

y = 1/4 x - 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 2y = -8 (rewrite in y = mx + b form)

2y = -8x -8 (divide both sides by 2)

y = -4x -2 for first line

Perpendicular line L has "opposite/inverse" slope

y = -4x + b becomes y = 1/4 x + b

What's b (the y-intercept)?

Plug the point (2, -12) into the equation y = 1/4 x  + b to solve for b

-12 = 1/4 (2) + b

-12 = 1/2 + b (subtract 1/2 from both sides)

-12.5 =b (rewrite equation)

y = 1/4 x - 12.5

Solve 4x - 3 = 18. Round to the nearest thousandth.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

x=5.250

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation 4x-3=18. We are asked to solve our given equation.

First of all, we will add 3 to both sides of our equation.

4x-3+3=18+3

4x=21

Now, we will divide both sides of our equation by 4.

\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{21}{4}

x=5.25

Upon rounding our answer to nearest thousandth (3 places after decimal) we will get,

x=5.250

Therefore, the solution for our given equation is x=5.250.
