Answer:

y=5x-12

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a line is <em>y=mx+b</em>.

The equation you currently have is <em>y=5x+b</em>.

Plug in the point (3,3) which will get you <em>3=5(3)+b</em>.

Solve the equation by solving what the y-intercept (b) is to create the new final equation.

3=5(3)+b

3=15+b

b=3-15

b=-12

y=5x-12

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is perpendicular to the line y = 1/5x +

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Let}\\\\k:y=m_1x+b_1\\\\l:y=m_2x+b_2\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\\\l\ \parallel\ k\iff m_1=m_2\\\\=========================$

$\text{We have}\ y=\dfrac{1}{5}x+10\to m_1=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\\text{Therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{\frac{1}{5}}=-5.\\\\\text{Put the value of a slope and the coordinates of the point (-3, 5)}\\\text{to the equation}\ y=mx+b:\\\\5=-5(-3)+b\\5=15+b\qquad\text{subtract 15 from both sides}\\-10=b\to b=-10\\\\\text{Finally:}\\\\y=-5x-10$
