What is the first equation?
Remember perpendicular lines have reciprocal slopes.
So if we have 1/2 we flip to fraction and sign becoming -2.
You then input the point to find the y-intercept.
Answer:
x=3 and y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract equation 2 from 1
then (2x+3y) -(2x+y) =9-7
2x-2x+3y-y =2
2y=2 therefore y=1
substitute y value in 2x+y=7
2x+1=7
2x=7-1
2x=6
x=3
Just do 6 x 0.2 to reverse the division
So the answer is 1.2
I think
