Answer:

y = $\frac{2}{3}$ x - 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 ) = (- 3, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 1) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{1+3}{3+3}$ = $\frac{4}{6}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$ , then

y = $\frac{2}{3}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (3, 1 ) , then

1 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 1 - 2 = - 1

y = $\frac{2}{3}$ x - 1 ← equation of line

If you plot the triangle on a graph, you'll see that the shape is a right triangle. Using the distance formula we can calculate the distance between point A and point B, which is the hypotenuse.

√(2− (−2))^2 + (4−1)^2
√(2+2)^2 + (4−1)^2
√(4)^2 + (3)^2
√6+9
√25
= 5

5 + 6 + 8 = 19. The perimeter of triangle ABC is 19 units. Hope this helps:)

Find the inner product for (5,-1)*(-3,6) and state whether the vectors are perpendicular. a. 21; no c. -21; no b. 21; yes d. -21

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the dot product of the vectors is zero then they are perpendicular

(5, - 1) • (- 3, 6)

= (5 × - 3) + (- 1 × 6) = - 15 + (- 6) = - 15 - 6 = - 21 ≠ 0

Since product is not zero vectors are not perpendicular
