Write an equation perpendicular to x-3y=3 passes through (5,-9)

Mathematics
1 answer:
kherson [118]3 years ago
8 0
3y=x-3
y=1/3x-1
Perpendicular slope: -3
y=-3x+b
Plug in the coordinates in the equation:
-9=-3(5)+b
-9=-15+b
4=b
Equation: y=-3x+4
Also, when finding the perpendicular slope you take the reciprocal of the original slope and make it negative if it is positive and make it positive if it’s negative.

Sara scored 8 goals this season. This is two less than a third of the goals she scored last season.
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

30 goals last season

Step-by-step explanation:

Goals this season = 8

Goals this season = 1/3 of goals last season - 2

Let Goals scored last season = x

Therefore,

8 = 1/3x - 2

8 = x/3 - 2

8 + 2 = x / 3

10 = x / 3

x = 10 * 3

x = 30

Sara scored 30 goals last season

i think of a number. if i divide the sum of 6 and the number by 3, the result is 4 more than one quarter of the number. find the
slega [8]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be A

Given if you divide the sum of six and the number A by 3 , the result is 4 more than 1/4 of A

That’s

6+A/3 = 4+1/4 of A

6+A/3 = 4+1/4 x A

6+A/3 = 4+A/4

Cross multiply

4(6 + A) = 3(4 + A)

Distribute

4 x 6 + 4 x A = 3 x 4 + 3 x A

24 + 4A = 12 + 3A

Subtract 24 from both sides to eliminate 24 on the left side

24 - 24 + 4A = 12 - 24 + 3A

4A = -12 + 3A

Subtract 3A from both sides so the unknown can be on one side

4A - 3A = -12 + 3A - 3A

A = -12

Check

6+(-12)/3 = 4 +(-12)/4

6 -12/3 = 4 -12/4

-6/3 = -8/4

-2 = -2
