Given W(2-3). X(-4.9), Y(5. y), and Z(-1, 1), find the value of y so that so that segment WX is perpendicular to segment YZ.
1 answer:
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
For WX to be perpendicular to YZ, then the product of their slope must be -1
For slope of WX
W(2-3) and X(-4.9),
Mwx = 9-(-3)/-4-2
Mwx = 12/-6
Mwx = -2
For slope of Y(5. y), and Z(-1, 1),
Myz = 1-y/-1-5
Myz = 1-y/-6
Since Mwx•Myz = -1
-2•(1-y/-6) = -1
1-y/3 = -1
1-y = -3
-y = -3-1
-y = -4
y = 4
Hence the value of y is 4

Logan- 10:7
The ratio is the same
Prime numbers are numbers that only have a factor of one and its self.
<span>5(-4) + 2y = -20
-20 + 2y = -20
2y = -20 + 20
2y = 0
y = 0</span>
Answer:
y=-2/3 x +4
Step-by-step explanation:
slop = (6-0)/(-3-6)= -2/3
c= 4 (when x =0)
line equation:
y= mx + c
y=-2/3 x +4
