What is the y-intercept of a line perpendicular to y= 1/2x + 6 that passes through the point (4,-3)

Answer:

(0,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes which are negative reciprocals of each other. The slope of the line y=1/2x + 6 is 1/2. The slope perpendicular to it is -2.

Using m=-2, substitute it and (4,-3) into the point slope form and simplify to find the y-intercept.

y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y--3=-2(x-4)\\y+3=-2(x-4)\\y+3=-2x+8\\y=-2x+5

The equation is now in slope intercept form y=mx+b and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of y=-2x+5 is (0,5).

Find the measure of an angle and its complement if one angle measures 24 degrees more than the other.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Complementary angles = 90

x+y =90

y=x+24

substitute this in to the equation

x+x+24=90

2x+24=90

subtract 24 from each side

2x = 66

divide by 2

x=33

y = 33+24

y=57

Answer: 33, 57

HELP ASAPPPPP! I WILL GIVE BRAINLEST​
Illusion [34]

The two numbers have 1 as a common factor and nothing else. Hence 1 is the HCF. This proves that the HCF of any two consecutive numbers is always a one.

Two integers are relatively prime (or coprime) if there is no integer greater than one that divides them both (that is, their greatest common divisor is one). For example, 12 and 13 are relatively prime, but 12 and 14 are not.
