Answer:
The answer is b ($9.74)
Step-by-step explanation:
I got it right (:
Perpendicular lines refers to a pair of straight lines that intercept each other. The slopes of this lines are opposite reciprocal, meaning that it's multiplication is -1.
On this case they give you the equation of a line and a point, and is asked to find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given one, and that passes through this point.
-2x+3y=-6 Add 2x in both sides
3y=2x-6 Divide by 3 in both sides to isolate y
y=2/3x-6/3
The slope of the given line is 2/3, which means that the slope of a line perpendicular to this one, needs to be -3/2. Now you need to find the value of b or the y-intercept by substituting the given point into the formula y=mx+b, where letter m represents the slope.
y=mx+b Substitute the given point and the previous slope found
-2=(-3/2)(6)+b Combine like terms
-2=-9+b Add 9 in both sides to isolate b
7=b
The equation that represents the line perpendicular to -2x+3y=-6 and that passes through the point (6,-2), is y=-3/2x+7.
Answer:
a. x=1.8?
Step-by-step explanation:
im not really sure but i need help also. Im sorry but i just thought to say something.
75 because 7+77=84 and 84-9=75
Answer:
y = -2/7x - 32/7
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form of a line is
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
The slope is -2/7
y = -2/7 x+b
We know a point on the line is (5,-6)
Substitute this into the equation
-6 = -2/7(5) +b
-6 = -10/7+b
Add 10/7 to each side
-6 +10/7 = b
-42/7 + 10/7 = b
-32/7 = b
y = -2/7x -32/7
