For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
On the other hand we have that if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1. So:
The given line is:
So we have:
We find 
So, a line perpendicular to the one given is of the form:
We substitute the given point to find "b":
Finally we have:
In point-slope form we have:
ANswer:
You mean (x-8)/3 = 3 ...right?
You would multiply both sides by 3.
Then, add 8 to both sides.
x=17
Answer:
37 and 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets say that the two numbers are x and y. We get the equations x + y = 64 and x - y = 10. We can then add these two equations together to get, 2x = 74. Then we divide by two on both sides and get x = 37. We then plug this value back into the second equation and get that 37 - y = 10. We can simplify this and we get that y = 27. So our two numbers are 37 and 27.
Answer:
4 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
= (8 - 3) + (1/4 - 1/2)
= 5 + 1/4 - (1 x 2 over 2 x 2)
= 5 + 1/4 - 2/4
= 5 and (1/2 over 4)
= 5 + -1/4
= 4 3/4
