Write the equation of the line perpendicular to 2x+3y=9 that passes through (-2,5). Write your answer in slope-intercept form. S

Harman [31]

ANSWER

$y = \frac{3}{2} x + 8$

EXPLANATION

The line given to us has equation,

$2x + 3y = 9$

We need to write this equation in the slope intercept form to obtain,

$3y = - 2x + 9$

$\Rightarrow \: y = - \frac{2}{3}x + 3$

The slope of this line is

$m_1 = - \frac{2}{3}$
Let the slope of the perpendicular line be

$m_2$

Then
$m_1 \times m_2 = - 1$

$- \frac{2}{3} m_2= - 1$

This implies that,

$m_2 = - 1 \times - \frac{3}{2}$

$m_2 = \frac{3}{2}$

Let the equation of the perpendicular line be,

$y = mx + b$

We substitute the slope to get,

$y = \frac{3}{2} x + b$

Since this line passes through
$(-2,5)$
it must satisfy its equation.

This means that,

$5= \frac{3}{2} ( - 2)+ b$

$5 = - 3 + b$

$5 + 3 = b$

$b = 8$

Wherefore the slope-intercept form is

$y = \frac{3}{2} x + 8$

The denominator of a fraction is greater than the numerator by 8. If the numerator is increased by 17 and denominator is decreas

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer: $\frac{13}{21}$

Step-by-step explanation:

2( N+ 17) = 3 (N +7)

2N+ 34= ·3N+ 21

N= 13

D= N+8 = 13+8 = 21

Fraction is $\frac{13}{21}$

When Im using N is equal to numerator and D for denominator, in order to get the fraction we substitute and the results combine in the fraction like this $\frac{N}{D}$

18% of the the students at a school are in year 8 and 16% of the students are in year 9. If the school has 126 tera 8 students,

yarga [219]

Answer:

112

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of all percentage questions is: the chunk= (some percentage) (of the whole), or c=p*w

We know that 18% of students are 8th grade and that is 126 students, so p = 0.18 and c=126 (126 students are 18% of the whole school)

126 = (0.18)w, divide both sides by 0.18

126/(0.18) = w = 700

9th graders are 16% of the school or 16% of 700 students

c = (0.16) 700 = 112 students
