Answer:

x + 2y= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points:

F = (4,9)

G = (1,3)

Required

Determine the equation of line that is perpendicular to the given points and that pass through (2,0)

First, we need to determine the slope, m of FG

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Where

F = (4,9) --- (x_1,y_1)

G = (1,3) --- (x_2,y_2)

m = \frac{3 - 9}{1 - 4}

m = \frac{- 6}{- 3}

m =2

The question says the line is perpendicular to FG.

Next, we determine the slope (m2) of the perpendicular line using:

m_2 = -\frac{1}{m}

m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}

The equation of the line is then calculated as:

y - y_1 = m_2(x - x_1)

Where

m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}

(x_1,y_1) = (2,0)

y - 0 = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 2)

y  = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 2)

y  = -\frac{1}{2}x + 1

Multiply through by 2

2y = -x + 2

Add x to both sides

x + 2y= -x +x+ 2

x + 2y= 2

Hence, the line of the equation is x + 2y= 2

Solve equation 3x-5y=7 5x-2y=-1 by elimination
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

x = -1, y = -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the elimination method,

multiply the first eqn by 2 and the 2nd eqn by 5.

6x - 10y = 14

25x - 10y = -5

Subtract one of the new equations from the other

-19x = 19

x = -1

Sub x=-1 into the 2nd eqn

-5 - 2y = -1

y = -2

Hence x = -1, y = -2.
