What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to 3x -6y =2 and contains the point (-2,--5)​

Answer:

y=-2x-12

Step-by-step explanation:

first, putt 3x-6y=2 in standard form:

subtract 3x from both sides: -6y=-3x+2

divide both sides by -6 to isolate y: y=1/2x-1/3

if the other line is perpendicular to this, you must find the slope by finding the opposite reciprocal of 1/2x: -2

now we have 2 points a slope, so we use the point-slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+2=-2(x+5)

Use the distributive property: y+2=-2x-10

subtract 2 for both sides to isolate y: y=-2x-12

MrMuchimi
20,000 x 25 = 500,000
500,000 divided by 100 = 5,000 members are lost.
Members left = 15,000
Members added = 10,000
Members every year  = Members left + Members added
                                   =          15,000 +  10,000
                                   =          25,000

Which is the graph of y = _0.4x?<br><br> A.<br><br><br> B.<br><br><br> C.<br><br><br> D.
cestrela7 [59]
Y = -0.4x

1) It is a straight line
2) I passes through the origin (0,0), because the y-intercpet is 0.
3) The slope is negative, so it passes throuh II and III quadrants
4) The magnitude of the slope = 0.4
4) The angle of the line with the negative side of the x-axis is that whose tan is 0.4 => angle = 21.8 °

With all that information you can identify the graph, given that you didn't include the options.

A little stuck on this problem help
KatRina [158]

Answer:

∠N =  31

Step-by-step explanation:

MN = MP

∠N = ∠P = x+3

∠M + ∠N + ∠P = 180

4x+6 + x+3 + x+3 = 6x + 12 = 180

x = 28

∠N = 28 + 3 = 31
