Answer:

The equation is;

y = -3/4x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form for the equation of a straight line is;

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

With respect to this question;

4/3 is the slope and 1 is the intercept

If two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1

Mathematically;

4/3 * m2 = -1

m2 = -3/4

So to find the equation of this second line, we use the point slope form

This is;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-4 = -3/4(x + 8)

y- 4 = -3/4x + 8

y = -3/4x + 12

If -x < -y, then all of the following are true except?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

b, c, d are all false

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x=4, y=2. The given statement says ...

... -4 < -2 . . . . . a true statement.

Now, let's look at the answer choices.

... a. -4 < -2 . . . . true

... b. 2(4) < 2(2) . . . . false

... c. 4 +2 < 2 +2 . . . . false

... d. 4/2 < 2/2 . . . . false

Then "a" is true, and "b", "c", and "d" are false.

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

7:56 A.M.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 hour and 59 mins = 119 mins

119+18 = 137

137/60 = 2 r 17

(10 - 2 = 8) - 17/60

Therefore they left at 7:56 A.M.

Help mee pleaseee :(
fgiga [73]

Answer:

y = - 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 3) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = \frac{-3-(-1)}{2-1} = \frac{-3+1}{1} = - 2 , then

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute any ordered pair from the table into the partial equation

Using (3, - 5 ) , then

- 5 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = - 5 + 6 = 1

y = - 2x + 1 ← equation of line
