Answer:
y = -1/2x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x - 3. The slope here is 2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, just flip the slope and change the sign.
slope = 2 or 2/1.....flip it.....1/2....change the sign...-1/2. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -1/2.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = - 1/2
(2,1)....x = 2 and y = 1
now we sub and find b, the y intercept
1 = -1/2(2) + b
1 = -1 + b
1 + 1 = b
2 = b
so ur equation is : y = -1/2x + 2 <===
and u can check it with ur points....(2,1)
y = 2x - 3
1 = 2(2) - 3
1 = 4 - 3
1 = 1 (yep...it checks out)
Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
m = the slope
b = y-intercept.
In this problem,
m = 3/5
b = ?
So far y = 3/5x + b
Let's plug the point (-3, -1) into our slope equation.
-1 = 3/5(-3) + b
Simplify the right side.
-1 = -9/5 + b
Add 9/5 to both sides.
4/5 = b
The equation is: y = 3/5x + 4/5
Answer choice A is correct.
X + x + 24 = 58
x = (58-24)/2=17
the first number is 17 and the second number is the sum of 17 and 28. Finding it has been left as an exercise for the reader.
the distance between 16 and -25 is 41
If a< c< b then a<c and c<b
Separate the equation into 2 separate ones and solve them:
X-9 < 4x +3
Subtract 3 from both sides:
X-12 < 4x
Subtract x from both sides:
-12< 3x
Divide both sides by 3:
X > -4
4x+3 < 27
Subtract 3 from both sides
4x < 24
Divide both sides by 4
X <6
Combine to get one inequality:
-4<x<6
