Answer:

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve for y to find the slope of the given line.

  x +2y = 2

  2y = -x +2 . . . . . subtract x

  y = -1/2x +1 . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

The slope is the x-coefficient, -1/2.

Any perpendicular line will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of this:

  -1/(-1/2) = 2

A perpendicular line will have a slope of 2.

What are the slope and y-intercept for the graph of y – 3x = -1?
Liula [17]

Answer:

Slope (m) = 3, y-intercept (b) = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to write the equation in y = mx + b.

To do this, add 3x to both sides.

y = 3x - 1 is your result.

Now, we have everything we need to do determine our slope and y-intercept in just this equation alone.

Remember, m = slope and b = y-intercept.

In this equation:

m = 3

b = -1

So your slope is 3, and your y-intercept is -1

Find the first four terms of the sequence an = 4n-6
natulia [17]

Answer:

The first four terms of the sequence are-6, -2, 2 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is a_n=4n-6

In order to find the first four term of the sequence we put n =0, 1, 2 and 3.

For n =0

a_0=4(0)-6=-6

For n =1

a_1=4(1)-6=-2

For n =2

a_2=4(2)-6=2

For n =3

a_3=4(3)-6=6

Therefore, the first four terms of the sequence are

-6, -2, 2 and 6
