Answer:
y = 1/2x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are perpendicular to each other, they have opposite slopes.
The first line is y = -2x + 8. Its slope is -2. A line perpendicular to this one will have a slope of 1/2.
Plug this value (1/2) into your standard point-slope equation of y = mx + b.
y = 1/2x + b
To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, it is (4, -2). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.
-2 = 1/2(4) + b
To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x (4)
-2 = 2 + b
Now, subtract 2 from both sides to isolate b.
-4 = b
Plug this into your standard equation.
y = 1/2x - 4
This equation is perpendicular to your given equation (y = -2x + 8) and contains point (4, -2)
Hope this helps!
Ok so, when working to find if a fraction is equal to another you must know what it is cut down by. So 6 / 2 = 3. Now let's break down 7 by 2. It is 3.5 that is not four. So no 6/7 so not equal to 3/4.
Answer:
<em>D.) 6 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>-3+2*6=9</em>
Answer:
y=3x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
For a the equation is y=3x+2 because he makes 3 every hour (3x) and he already has 2 (+2).
For the graph you replace x with any number and solve. Plot the point.
Then you do it again but with a different x.
Finally you draw a straight line trough the 2 points.
8m+27= 2m-3
take 2m and subtract it from 8m, this gives you 6m. now your equation is 6m+27=-3.
subtract 27 from -3, this will make it 6m=-30.
divide 30 by 6. this gives you your answer. m=-5, because -30 divided by 6 equals -5.
now to test it you can plug -5 into the equation in place of M. 8 times -5 equals -40, plus 27 equals -13. 2 times -5 equals -10 plus -3 equals -13.
