First, we need to get the slope of the equation of the train tracks. We can transform the given equation into the slope-intercept form.
4x +2y = 16
y = -2x +8
The slope of the equation is -2.
A perpendicular line will have the same slope but the opposite sign.
So, the slope of the line of the train crossing is 2. Since, it will pass through the point (8,15), the slope-intercept form can also be used to solve for the equation.
y = mx + b
The slope is 2, so m=2. We solve b by substituting the coordinates.
15 = 2(8) +b
b = -11
The equation is now,
y = -2x - 11
Or it can also be expresses as:
2x - y = 11
Answer: Your answer should be 21 I believe.
Step-by-step explanation:
So since, they are the same distance from zero, they should be the oppposite of each other so in other words, k=-h and h=-k
so k+h=(subisute)k-k=-h+h=0 because they cancel
This is the best i could find
Answer:
left handed: right handed
1 : 8
Step-by-step explanation:
1 out of every 9 people are left handed
9-1 = 8
That means 8 of the 9 are right handed
left handed: right handed
1 : 8
