y = mx + b
m = slope and b = y-intercept
We can arrange 6y = x - 12 in the form of y = mx + b
6y = x - 12
y = 1/6(x) - 2
Slope of y = 1/6(x) - 2 is 1/6. Taking the negative reciprocal of the slope we get the slope for the perpendicular line.
Negative reciprocal of 1/6 is -6.
The equation for the perpendicular line is
y = -6x + b
To find b we can plug in the x and y values of (4,-4) into it since it passes through those coordinates
-4 = -6(4) + b
b = -4 + 6(4)
b = -4 + 24
b = 20
So the equation for the perpendicular line is y = -6x + 20
What I would do for this problem, is move all the terms that don't contain m to the right side, and then solve.
m = 4/5.
Answer:
7 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
How many times does 6 fully go into 45?
7 times.
7 times 6 is 42, so subtract that from 45 and you will get 3/6 left over after finding 7 as a whole number.
simplify 3/6: 1/2
Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't see a y in the diagram.
The 3 angles x, 90 and (4x - 10) lie on the line EF and sum to 180°, so
x + 90 + 4x - 10 = 180, that is
5x + 80 = 180 ( subtract 80 from both sides )
5x = 100 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 20
