Write the equation of a line that is BOTH PARALLEL and PERPENDICULAR

Answer:

Parallel line: y=-x+27

Perpendicular line: y=x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Rearrange '2x+4y=16' to fit this format:

2x + 4y = 16

x+y=8

y=-x+8

<u>Parallel line</u>

If two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. So our equation goes from y=mx+b to y=-x+b. We know the line goes through (12,15), so we sub this in to get b:

15=-12+b

b=27

So our equation is y=-x+27

<u>Perpendicular line</u>

If two lines are perpendicular, the slope of one line is the negative inverse of another: eg, if a line had slope=3, the line perpendicular to it would have slope=-1/3. The negative inverse of -1 is 1, so our equation goes from y=mx+b to y=x+b.We know the line goes through (12,15), so we sub this in to get b:

15=12+b

b=3

So our equation is y=x+3

3c=2(c-1) in a verbal expression
kifflom [539]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  "three times a number is the same as twice the difference of the number and 1"

Step-by-step explanation:

3c is "three times a number"

2(c -1) is "two times the difference of the number and 1"

When writing the description of the right-hand side, one needs to be careful to write it so there is no ambiguity with respect to what is being multiplied by 2. For example, if you say, "two times one less than the number", it is not clear whether that is c -2×1 or 2×(c -1).

A suitable description is ...

three times a number is the same as twice the difference of the number and 1
