Eliana claims she has discovered a method for determining the general form equation of a line

Mathematics

jenyasd209 [6]2 years ago

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a line is given by:

Ax + By + C = 0

The slope intercept form of a line is give by:

y = mx + b;

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Given a line with equation Ax + By + C = 0; the slope of the line can be gotten by representing in slope intercept form, hence it becomes:

By = -Ax - C

y = (-A/B)x - C/B

The slope is -A/B

For a line with equation Bx - Ay + C = 0:

Ay = Bx + C

y = (B/A)x + C/A

the slope is B/A

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of the slopes is -1. Hence:

-A/B * B/A = -1; hence the two lines are perpendicular

What is the equation of the line described below written in slope-iWhat is the equation of the line described below written in s
horsena [70]

The equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1

<h3>Equation of a line</h3>

A line is the shortest distance between two points. The equation of a line in point-slope form and perpendicular to a line is given as;

y - y1 = -1/m(x-x1)

where

m is the slope

(x1, y1) is the intercept

Given the following

Point = (4, -1)

Line: 2x-y - 7 = 0


Determine the slope

-y = -2x + 7

y= 2x - 7

Slope = 2

Substitute

y+1 = -1/2(x -4)

Write in slope-intercept form

2(y + 1) = -(x - 4)

2y+2 = -x + 4

2y = -x + 2

y = -1/2 + 1

Hence the equation of a line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y - 7 = 0 is y = -1/2x + 1

An equation is shown. 2x-4y=8 solve the equation for x in terms of y
horrorfan [7]
2x-4y=8

Add 4y to each side to separate the variables, since you want to solve for x let be on the left

2x=4y+8

Divide the entire equation by 2 to allow x to stand alone

x=2y+4

Answer:

  17/99

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace the digits 23 in your example with the digits 17 and you have your answer:

  0.\overline{17}=\dfrac{17}{99}

_____

In general, a 2-digit repeat will have 99 as its denominator. If the digits are a multiple of 3 or 11, then the fraction can be reduced. 17 is prime, so the fraction cannot be reduced.
