Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y = 3x - 6 that runs through the point (-1, -3).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll get you the answer. You pick it from what you are given.

The slope of the perpendicular is m1 * m2 = - 1

m1 = 3

m2 = -1 / m1

m2 = -1 / 3

So far what you have is

y = (-1/3) x + b

Use the point go get b

x = -1

y = - 3

y = (-1/3) *x + b

-3 = (-1/3)*-1 + b

-3 = 1/3 + b  

-3 - 1/3 = b

b = -3.33333  or

b = -3 1/3

b = -10/3              

So the answer is

y = (- 1/3) x - 10/3            or

y = (-1 / 3)x - 3.3333       or

y = (-1/3 )x  - (3 1/3)

Can someone help me with system of equations?
umka21 [38]

#1)

Answer:

x=1 and y=12

Explanation:

y=5x+7

y=2x+10

This system should use substitution because the value of y is given in terms if x.

Substitution:

5x+7=2x+10

Solve:

3x=3

x=1

Substitute x to solve for y by plugging x into one if the original equations(doesn’t matter which one is used).

y=5x+7

y=5(1)+7

y=5+7

y=12

#2)

Answer:

x=-8 and y=2

Explanation:

y=2x+18

9y=-2x+2

This system also uses substitution. The value of y us already given in terms if c in the first equations, so we will substitute in the second equation.

Substitute:

9(2x+18)=-2x+2

Solve:

18x+162=-2x+2

20x=-160

x=-8

Now that we have the value if x, plug it into one of the original equations(doesn’t matter which equation) and substitute to find y.

y=2x+18

Substitute:

y=2(-8)+18

Solve:

y=-16+18

y=2
