The slope, if increased, would make the line y=2x-7 steeper. If you were to increase the y intercept, you would just move the line, not tilt it. Suggest changing it to 4x-7 = y or 8x-7= y, if you increase the slope, it'll make it steeper.
1) 2x-1 or x=1/2
2) 5a-16 or a=16/5
Answer:
y=-1/3x + 33
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start by writing this in point slope form and converting to slope intercept later. Since the slope of the perpendicular line is y=3x-30, this line must have a slope of -1/3. It's point slope form is therefore:
y-25=-1/3(x-24)
Now, you can convert to slope intercept by isolating y:
y=-1/3(x-24)+25
y=-1/3x+8+25
y=-1/3x+33
Hope this helps!
Solution:
<u>Note that:</u>
- Slope = m = 4
- Given point: (x₁,y₁) = (1,1) [x₁ = 1; y₁ = 1]
- Formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
<u>Use the formula to convert the line in point slope form.</u>
- y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
- y - 1 = 4(x - 1)
The equation of the line (In point slope form) is y - 1 = 4(x - 1).
