Since the line is perpendicular, we know that the slope is reciprocal and negative to the other one.

So,

y = -4x + b

We want to find the y-intersect (b) so substitute the intersected points and solve for it.

2 = -4(2) + b

2 = -8 + b

2 + 8 = b

10 = b

So the complete equation would be:

y = -4x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not to sure but if there is 12 slices and the 2 each had 2 of there own slices, this would be 4/12 simplified into 1/3.

Gnoma [55]

The area of the scale drawing would be 1080 square centimeters or (1080 cm^2). I got this answer through first finding the area of the classroom in feet (which is A= lw = [18][20] = 360 ft^2) and then I proceeded to converting it to centimeters via given scale factor (3 cm = 1 foot) and had the answer of 1080 centimeters squared.

NEED HELP Find values for a, b, c, and d so that the following matrix product equals the 2X2 identity matrix. Explain or show ho

ehidna [41]

We want to find the values of a, b, c, and d such that the given matrix product is equal to a 2x2 identity matrix. We will solve a system of equations to find:

b = 1
a = -1
c = -2
d = -1

<h3>Presenting the equation:</h3>

Basically, we want to solve:

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1&2\\a&1\end{array}\right]*\left[\begin{array}{cc}b&c\\1&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]$

The matrix product will be:

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}-b + 2&-c + 2d\\a*b + 1&a*c + d\end{array}\right]$

Then we must have:

-b + 2 = 1

This means that:

b = 2 - 1 = 1

b = 1

We also need to have:

a*b + 1 = 0

we know the value of b, so we just have:

a*1 + b = 0

a = -1

Now the two remaining equations are:

-c + 2d = 0

a*c + d = 1

Replacing the value of a we get:

-c + 2d = 0

-c + d = 1

Isolating c in the first equation we get:

c = 2d

Replacing that in the other equation we get:

-(2d) + d = 1

-d = 1

d = -1

Then:

c = 2d = 2*(-1) = -2

c = -2

So the values are:

b = 1
a = -1
c = -2
d = -1
