Line m is perpendicular to x − 5y = −1 and passes through (2, 9). What is the slope of line m?

Mathematics

3 0

Answer:

Slope of line M= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocals for slope.

For ex: 1/2x=y is perpendicular to -2x=y

For this one simplify the first equation:

x+1=5y

x/5+1/5=y

The slope of the original equation is 1/5.

So the slope of the perpendicular line would be -5.

The actual equation would be:

-5x+19=Y

Y = 2x + 5 and 3x + y = 40
Sophie [7]

ANSWER: x=7, y=19

Steps

1. Substitute y=2x+5

3x+2x+5=40

2. For y=2x+5 , Substitute x=7

y=2 * 7+5

3. 2 * 7+5=19

y=19

What is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y = 3 x − 2 and passes through the point ( 6 , 8 ) Was
Flauer [41]

Hello!

To find the line that is perpendicular to y = 3x - 2 and passes through the ordered pair (6, 8), we will:

  1. Find the negative reciprocal using the slope of the given function
  2. Substitute the given ordered pair into the new equation with the slope found in step 1

Let's remind ourselves of slope-intercept formula. Slope-intercept formula is y = mx + b, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

In the given equation, we know that 3 is slope. With that, we can find the negative reciprocal of that slope, and continue to step #2.

To find the reciprocal, we will need to flip our fraction. In this case, 3/1 = 3, so once we flip it, it is 1/3. Since it is the negative reciprocal, the fraction is a negative, so the negative reciprocal is -1/3.

Now, we will substitute the ordered pair into the slope-intercept formula with our new slope.

y = -1/3x + b (6, 8)

8 = -1/3(6) + b

8 = -2 + b (add 2 to both sides)

10 = b

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = -1/3x + 10.
