The base is 5 because when you divide 31.5 by 6.3 it's 5
x = -1
y = 1
To find this, input the equation into a graphing calculator, whether online or an actual one, and you have two options:
1 - Search for the points in which the line crosses the x and or y axis.
2 - Hit 2nd Graph to access the table and find when x and y equal zero.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The answer to 3/4x-1/6 is -0.126
The origin is at the point (0,0). Therefore, the y-intercept will be 0. For two points to be perpendicular, the slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other. .5 can be seen as 1/2, so the reciprocal is 2, and it is positive, making that 2 negative. Your equation would be y = -2x.
