Solve for x in X-2 (x=8)
Substitute X=8 into 3x - 6y =18 (24-6y=18)
Solve for y in 24-6y=18 (y=1)
X=8 and y=1

2y=6
3x-6y=18
Divide first equation by 2: y=3
Substitute y=3 into second equation: 3x-6(3)=18
Solve for x: 3x=36 x=12

Therefore there is only one solution: x=12 y=3

Write an equation of the line that passes through (2, -3) and is perpendicular to the line y=-2x-3

Natalija [7]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{2} (x-2)-3$ or $y=\frac{1}{2} x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular slope is the opposite-reciprocal of the original slope:

Perpendicular slope of -2 is $\frac{1}{2}$

Write the equation in point-slope form ( $y=a(x-h)+k$ ):

$y=\frac{1}{2} (x-2)-3$

Convert to slope-intercept form if needed:

$y=\frac{1}{2} x-1-3$

$y=\frac{1}{2} x-4$
