Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Step One

Find the perpendicular to the line with a given slope of - 1

m1 * m2 = - 1            Let the given line have a slope of - 1. Call it m1

-1 * m2 = - 1              Divide both sides by -1

-1/-1 * m2 = -1/-1

m2 = 1

Step Two

Write what you have so far

y = 1 * x + b

y = x + b

Step Two

Solve the general equation for (2,-2)

y = x + b

x = 2

y = -2

-2 = 2 + b      Subtract 2 from both sides

-2 - 2 = b       switch and add

b= - 4

Answer

y = x -4

PLEASEE HEELPPP I NEED THIS QUESTION ANYONE HELP!!!
forsale [732]

Answer:

4u= - 4i - 24j

u +w = -9i - 3j

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on operation of vectors

Given u= -i -6j  and w= -8i+3j

Then 4u = 4{ -i-6j}

4u= - 4i - 24j

u+w= -i -6j + -8i+3j......................collect like terms

= -i -8i + -6j +3j

= -9i + -3j

= -9i - 3j

: Find the slope between the two points given. Then, use the slope and point ONE to write the equation of the line in Point-Slop
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

           slope:      \bold{m=3}

      equation:     \bold{y-2=3(x-1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\(1,\,2)\ \implies\ x_1=1\,,\ y_1=2\\(0,\,-1)\ \implies\ x_2=0\,,\ y_2=-1\\\\m=\dfrac{-1-2}{0-1}=\dfrac{-3}{-1}=3

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)      - point-slope form of Equation of the Line

x_1=1\,,\ y_1=2\,,\ m=3\\\\equation:\\{}\qquad\qquad y-2=3(x-1)
