Answer:
x = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
7 x 3 = 21
The slope of the given line is 3. Therefore, the slope of any line perpendicular to y = 3x - 2 is the negative reciprocal of 3, which is m = -1/3.
Starting with the point-slope equation of a straight line, obtain the specific equation applicable here by substituting the givens: m = -1/3, h = 6 and k = 8):
y - k = m (x - h) becomes y - 8 = (-1/3)(x - 6) (answer).
This could, if you wish, be rewritten in some other format.
Answer:
l=8/3h equation demonstrates this
Slope is (change in y)/(change in x). If you have a slope of -2/3 the change in y is -2 and the change in x is 3. Find the point (-2, 1) on the xy plane. Change the y component by -2 (move down 2 grid lines) then change the x component by 3 (move to the right 3 grid lines). If you repeat this process in both directions then draw a line through the points you'll have a line with slope -2/3 which passes through the point (-2, 1). The equation of this line is: y=-2/3x-1/3
