Here are the following justifications:

Given: -2 (x-1) +12=4x-6


Distribute property = -2x+2+12=4x-6


Combine like terms= -2x+14=4x-6

 

Transpose = -2x = 4x – 20

 

Addition or Subtraction Property of Equality = -6x = -20

 

Division property of equality = x = 20/6

 

Simplify = x = 10/3

Write an equation that is perpendicular to and 3x+y=3 whose y-intercept 5. Anyone please help me, no link just explain how to do
Liula [17]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{3}x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, two lines are perpendicular if and only if their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other:  m = - \frac{1}{m_{2} }, or equivalently, m_{1} * m_{2} = -1.

Given our linear equation  3x + y = 3  (or y = -3x + 3):

We can find the equation of the line (with a y-intercept of 5) that is perpendicular to y = -3x + 3 by determining the negative reciprocal of its slope, -3, which is \frac{1}{3}.

To test whether this is correct, we can take first slope,  m_{1} = -3,  and multiply it with the negative reciprocal slope m_{2} = \frac{1}{3} :

m_{1} * m_{2} = -1

-3 * \frac{1}{3}  = -1

Therefore, we came up with the correct slope for the other line, which is  \frac{1}{3}.

Finally, the y-intercept is given by (0, 5). Therefore, the equation of the line that is perpendicular to 3x + y = 3 is:

y = \frac{1}{3}x + 5
