Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to write in correct form :
We know how to divide fractions. If we can divide numerator by numerator, denominator by denominator, we just do it. In this example we can not do that.
So, we rewrite first fraction and multiply by reciprocal second ( numerator and denominator change place)
Now, multiply numerator by numerator, denominator by denominator :
Answer:
y = x - 12
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 )
y = - x ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - , c = 0
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
=
, then
y = x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (3, - 8) into the partial equation
- 8 = 4 + c ⇒ c = - 8 - 4 = - 12
y = x - 12 ← equation of perpendicular line
