Step-by-step explanation:
maybe this is not the full expression, as you wrote the line equation in a funny way.
I understand the following :
the line is
y = (-2/5)×x - 7
perpendicular means crossing at a right angle (90 degrees).
the slope of the original line is -2/5.
as in every line equation, the slope is the factor of x. and it expresses the ratio y/x indicating the amount of units y is changing, when x changes a certain amount of units (e.g. when going from one point on the line to another).
the perpendicular slope turns the original y/x ratio upside-down, and also flips the sign.
so, it is 5/2.
the equation for the perpendicular line looks like
y = (5/2)×x + b
now what is b ?
for this we use the specified point on the line : (4, -1)
and we put these values as x and y into the equation :
-1 = (5/2)×4 + b = 5×2 + b = 10 + b
b = -11
and so, the full equation of the perpendicular line is
y = (5/2)×x - 11
24.5=-2.5c-4c
24.5=-6.5c
49=-13c
3.77=-c
c=-3.77
Answer:
(-2, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- Point A is at (2, -8) and point C is at (-4, 7)
<u>Difference of coordinates:</u>
- Δx = 2 - (-4) = 6
- Δy = - 8 - 7 = - 15
<u>The ratio of AB to AC is 2:1. So:</u>
- AB = 2*AC/3 and BC = AC/3
<u>Then coordinates of point B should be 2/3 from the point A:</u>
- x = 2- 6*2/3 = 2 - 4 = -2
- y = - 8 - (-15)*2/3 = -8 + 10 = 2
So point B has coordinates of (-2, 2)
This is the quadratic formula.
