What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is perpendicular to the line

Answer:

y = -x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we want to find the equation of a line.

Generally, the equation of a starlight line goes by the firm y = mx + c where m represents the slope and c represents the y-intercept

The first equation given, can be rewritten as ;

y = x -6 + 4

y = x - 2

From here, it is clear that our slope m is equal to 1.

Now if two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes equals -1

what i’m saying is m1•m2 = -1

Now since we know both lines are perpendicular, then we have the slope of the second line as -1 in value

Now after getting the slope, we need to write the equation using that point that falls on where the line passes through

Using;

y = mx + c for slope -1 and point (-2,-2)

we have;

-2 = -1(-2) + c

-2 = 2 + c

c = -2-2

c = -4

Thus our final equation is where we are having m to be -1 and c = -4

y = -1(x) -4

y = -x-4

ps : different equations in the note and on the screenshot. I followed what’s in the question!

If M is the Midpoint of AB, then solve for x find the unknown measures the given segments.
Leto [7]

Answer:

If M is midpoint of AB, then

AM=MB

4x-5= 2x+11

2x=16

x=8

AM= 4x-5

=4(8)-5

=32-5

=27

BM=2x+11

=2(8)+11

=16+11

=27

Hope it helps:-)

Can you find the slope for me, please?
shusha [124]
The slope is -3/2

Use the two ordered pairs (-2,0) and (0,-3) and do y2-y1/x2-x1

-3-0/0+2= -3/2
