Answer:

The perpendicular line would be y = -1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. This means that we take the original slope (2) and negate it (-2). Now that we have the negated version, we need to flip it (-1/2).

With the slope of our new equation decided, we simply need to plug it along with the point into point-slope base form and then solve for y.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 4 = -1/2(x - 8)

y + 4 = -1/2x + 4

y = -1/2x

What is 8 3/4 ÷ 2 7/8 (show ur work)

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

see below:-

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle{8 \frac{3}{4} \div 2 \frac{7}{8} }$

Convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions.

$\displaystyle{ \frac{8 \times 4 + 3}{4} \div \frac{8 \times 2 + 7}{8} }$

$\displaystyle{ \frac{32 + 3}{4} \div \frac{16 + 7}{8} }$

$\displaystyle{ \frac{35}{4} \div \frac{23}{8} }$

$\displaystyle{ \frac{35}{4} \times \frac{8}{23} }$

$\displaystyle{ \frac{35}{ \cancel4} \times \frac{ \cancel8 {}^{2} }{23} }$

$\displaystyle{ \frac{35 \times 2}{23} }$

$\displaystyle{ \frac{70}{23} }$

$\displaystyle{3 \frac{1}{23} }$

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line y=3/4x+2

stepladder [879]

If two lines are parallel to one another, then their slopes are identical. The slope in the line above is 3/4. Therefore, a line parallel to that line will also have a slope of 3/4, it will just have a different y-intercept.
