ANSWER

y-1= \frac{1}{3} (x- 6)

EXPLANATION

We want to write the point-slope form of the line that passes through (6, 1) and is perpendicular to a line with a slope of -3.

The slope of this line is negative reciprocal of -3.

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

The point-slope form is given by:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

We substitute the point and the slope to get;

y-1= \frac{1}{3} (x- 6)

Answer:

y - 1 = 1/3*(x - 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

point-slope form of a line:

y - y1 = m*(x - x1)

where x1 and y1 are the coordinates of the point included in the line and m is its slope.

Two lines are perpendicular when the multiplication of their slopes is equal to -1. In this case,

m*(-3) = -1  

m = 1/3

Replacing this slope and the coordinates of point (6, 1) we get:

y - 1 = 1/3*(x - 6)

First set up a linear equation  and using the x and y values in the table see if it solves.

It doesn't solve so we know it isn't linear. ( I won't show all those steps because they aren't needed.)

Using the quadratic formula y = ax^2 +bx +c

Build a set of 3 equations from the table:

C is the Y intercept ( when X is 0), this is shown in the table as 6

Now we have y = ax^2 + bx + 6

-2.4 =4a-2b +6

1.4 = a-b +6

Rewrite the equations

a=b/2 -2.1

1.4 = b/2-2.1 +6

b = 5

a = 5/2 -2.1 = 0.4

replace the letters to get y = 0.4x^2 + 5x +6

Which statement best explains why the equation X +2=3x-14 can be used to slice for x ?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

x would be equal on both sides so if you use that equation you'll find x and be able to solve for both sides
