Answer:

The y-intercept is -9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the form y = mx + b, b is the y-intercept of the equation. Thus by definition in the equation y = 1/2x - 9, -9 is the y-intercept.

Additionally, the y-intercept is the point where x = 0; thus, when y = 1/2(0) - 9, y = -9.

If a line perpendicular to 2y=x+5 that passes through (2,1) using the slope- intercept form

arlik [135]

Slope of 2y = x + 5:-
This is y = 0.5 x + 2.5 in slope intercept form so its slope = 0.5

Slope of the line perpendicular to it = -1 / 0.5 = -2

it passes through (2 , 1) so we have

y- 1 = -2(x - 2)
y = -2x + 4 + 1

The answer is y = -2x + 5

Put y+7=1/2(x+2) in standard form Standard form: Ax+By=C

My name is Ann [436]

$y+7=\frac{1}{2}(x+2)\ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\2y+14=x+2\ \ \ \ |subtract\ x\ and\ 2\ from\ both\ sides\\\\-x+2y+14-2=0\\\\-x+2y+12=0\ \ \ \ \ |change\ signs\\\\\boxed{x-2y-12=0}$
