What is the equation of the line perpendicular to y=2/3x+1 that passes through the point (12, -6)?

Answer:

y= -3/2x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding a perpendicular line you take your slope and make it the opposite (flip it and change the sign).

Slope originally=2/3

New slope= -3/2

Next we will use the point slope equation

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y1=y value

m=slope

x1=x value

y--6= -3/2(x-12)  Since you have y minus negative 6 you get to change it to y+6

y+6= -3/2(x-12)  Now distribute your slope to both terms inside the parenthesis.

y+6= -3/2(x) -3/2(-12)

y+6= -3/2x +18    Finally subtract 6 from both sides.

  -6             -6

y= -3/2x + 12

Sierra says that she can simplify the side of the inequality shown by combining the terms within the parentheses but that she​ c
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Yes, Sierra is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4(y + 7) > -3 (4 + 5)

Required

Is she correct

The right parenthesis has 4 + 5.

This can be simplified as: 4 + 5 = 9

So, we have:

4(y + 7) > -3 (4 + 5)

4(y + 7) > -3 *9

The left parenthesis has y + 7.

This cannot be simplified because y is a variable and 7 is a number.

<em>Hence, Sierra is correct.</em>
