Find the equation of the straight line passing through the point (0,1) which is perpendicular to the line y= -2x + 2

Answer:

y = 1/2x + 1

In order to evaluate a slope that is perpendicular to the given equation, you need to find the opposite reciprocal of the original slope. This means you take the original slope, flip the numerator and the denominator, and change the sign in front.

-2 ⇒ 1/2

Next, we need to substitute the information given into the point-slope formula.

The point-slope formula is:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 1 = 1/2(x - 0)

y - 1 = 1/2x

y = 1/2x + 1

Therefore, the line perpendicular to y = -2x + 2 is y = 1/2x + 1.

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Length\ of\ the\ long\ piece=40\ meters\\\\Length\ of\ the\ short\ piece=17\ meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "s" the length in meters of the short piece and "l" the lenght in meters of the long piece.

Set up a system of equations:

\left \{ {{s+l=57} \atop {s=l-23}} \right.

Apply the Substitution Method to solve the system. Substitute the second equation into the first equation and solve for "l":

(l-23)+l=57\\\\2l=80\\\\l=\frac{80}{2}\\\\l=40

Susbstitute the value of "l" into the second equation in order to find the value of "s". This is:

s=40-23\\\\s=17

How do you show where an inequality is true on a number line?
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

When the two values are different

Step-by-step explanation:

Like in an inequality equation.

For example:

4+5x\geq 30

The answer would be anything greate than or equal to 30, but you would need to find x. The number line would be very useful

Hope this helps
