we are given that ,
The combined area of two squares is 17 square meters.
Area of square=
Let the side length of smaller square be x
The size of the larger Square are four times as long as the size of the smaller square
So Area of larger square=
The combined Area is 17 square meter.
Hence the smaller square has the side length=
So the larger square has side length=
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's rewrite the given equation such that only y is on the left side and everything else on the right side:
Simplifying this by dividing by 6, we get
This line has a slope of -1/2, which means that a line perpendicular to this has a slope of 2 (i.e., negative reciprocal). So we can write its equation as
This is the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line perpendicular to our given line. To complete this form, we need to find the value of b. Since this line passes through (1, -7), put these numbers into our equation to get
Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the equation can be written as
