Answer: It depends on which variable you're solving for.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for b: b=7/8mx + -1/8xy
Solving for m: m=xy+8b
______
7x
Solving for x: x=-8b
___
-7m+y
Solving for y: y=7mx-8b
______
x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 7,000,000
So anytime we have a slope and want to find the slope of a perpendicular line, we just have to remember a perpendicular line's slope is the negative reciprocal (reciprocal means flip the fraction). So if we had a slope of 3/4, the slope perpendicular to it would be - 4/3.
First we need to find our slope, to do this we take the change in y over the change in x like so:
(15-12)/(4-7) = - 3/4
The slope perpendicular to this is 4/3.
I will show how to do it:
Step 1: Start your point at 3 in the y axis (line going upwards)
Step 2: Move up twice.
Step 3: Now go to the right once.
Step 4: Use a ruler to draw the line.
Step 5: Cross check by picking two points that are on the line. Or use the formula - y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
