Arthur is trying to find the equation of a perpendicular to y = 1 over 4x + 4 in slope-intercept form that passes through the po

int (−2, 6). Which of the following equations will he use?
y − 6 = 1 over 4(x − (−2))
y − (−2) = 1 over 4(x − 6)
y − 6 = −4(x − (−2))
y − (−2) = −4(x − 6)

Answer:

C) y − 6 = −4(x − (−2))

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is y = 1/4 x + 4 and passes through the point (-2, 6)

We have to find the perpendicular line.

The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the given slope of the line.

The given slope of the line is 1/4,

The slope of the perpendicular line is -4.

It is passes through the point (-2, 6)

The formula is (y - y1) = m (x - x1)

Here x1 = -2 and y1 = 6 and m = -4

Plug in those values into the formula, we get

y - 6 = -4(x -(-2))

Therefore, the answer is C) y − 6 = −4(x − (−2))


Thank you.

<u>Answer:</u>

y − 6 = −4(x − (−2))

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have an equation of a line y=\frac{1}{4} x+4 which passes through the point (-2, 6).

The standard form of an equation is y = mx+c

so in the given equation, we have a slope of \frac{1}{4} so the slope of the perpendicular line will be -4 since its the negative reciprocal of the line.

So putting these values in the equation  (y - y1) = m (x - x1), we get:

y-6=--4(x - (-2) )

Therefore, the correct answer option is y − 6 = −4(x − (−2)).

If y=3x and 2x−4y=3 , then x=
tatiyna

Answer:

x = -3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x by substituting y = 3x into the other equation:

2x - 4y = 3

2x - 4(3x) = 3

Simplify and solve for x:

2x - 12x = 3

-10x = 3

x = -3/10

So, x = -3/10

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Final cost = 0.9328y

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume,

Original price = y

Given:

Discount = 22%

Sales tax = 6%

Computation:

Sales tax will be added on sale value

So,

Sales price = y[100%-22%]

Sales price = 0.88y

Price after sales tax :

Final cost = 0.88y[100% + 6%]

Final cost = 0.88y[106%]

Final cost = 0.9328y
