1/3x + y = 9
y = -1/3x + 9

-2x + 2y = -6
-2x + 2(-1/3x + 9) = -6
-2x - 2/3x + 18 = -6
-6/3x - 2/3x = -6 - 18
-8/3x = -24
x = -24 * -3/8
x = 9 <== here is y

-2x + 2y = -6
-2(9) + 2y = -6
-18 + 2y = -6
2y = -6 + 18
2y = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6 <=== here is x

a line is perpendicular to y=-2x+5 and intersects the point (-4,2). what is the equation of this perpendicular line?
german

Answer:

y = 1/2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is perpendicular to y = -2x + 5 then the new line has a slope of 1/2.

So solve for b: using y = mx + b

2 = 1/2(-4) + b

2 = -2 + b

4 = b

Put it all together

y = 1/2x + 4
