Answer: y=5x+3
Step by step explanation:
Perpendicular meaning that the product of the slope/gradient is -1 hence ...
-1/5 * x = -1
x = -1/-1/5
x = 5
The equation perpendicular to y=-1/5x-3 is y=5x-c
Now it contains the points (1,2)
x variable is 1 and y variable is 2 plug them into the line equation
2=5(1)-c
2=5-c
2-5=-c
-3=-c divide by -1
3=c
Hence the perpendicular equation is y=5x+3
Hopefully it’s correct :)

Select the correct answer. A linear function has a y-intercept of -12 and a slope of 3/2. What is the equation of the line? y =

aniked [119]

Answer:

The equation of the line is:

$y\:=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-12$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Given

y-intercept b = -12

slope m = 3/2

now substituting b = -12 and m = 3/2 in the slope-intercept form of line equation

$y = mx+b$

$y\:=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:+\:\left(-12\right)$

$y\:=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-12$

Therefore, the equation of the line is:

$y\:=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-12$
