Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find an equation of a line that's perpendicular to x=1 that also passes through the point (8,-9).
Note that x=1 is a <em>vertical line </em>since x is 1 no matter what y is.
This means that if our new line is perpendicular to the old, then it must be a <em>horizontal line</em>.
So, since we have a horizontal line, then our equation must be our y-value of our point.
Our y-coordinate of our point (8,-9) is -9.
Therefore, our equation is:
And this is in standard form.
And we're done!
Answer:
X=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
A number x is multiplied by 4, added to 3, and then divided by x+2, leaving us with 7/2. Or, as an equation:
Now, let's cross multiply:
And solve:
