Answer:

In order to make a slope perpendicular, you have to change its sign depending on whether it is negative or positive. And you have to change it upside down (its reciprocal)

Therefore,

Please help I can’t figure this out!

Explanation:

All values in the x-column get filled with -2.

The graph is the vertical line, x = -2.

You are told x=-2. There is nothing to figure out. The value of y is irrelevant.

That equation describes a vertical line. The points on the line have x-coordinate -2, and any (every) y-coordinate.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-9, -8) and (–6,6).

Answer:

Slope - intercept form $y = \frac{14}{3} x + 34$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>

Given points are ( -9 ,-8 ) and (-6,6)

slope of given two points

$m = \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} } = \frac{6-(-8)}{-6-(-9)} = \frac{14}{3}$

The equation of the straight line passing through the points and having slope

$y - y_{1} = m ( x - x_{1} )$

$y - (-8) = \frac{14}{3} ( x - (-9) )$

3 y + 2 4 = 14 x + 126

3 y = 14 x + 126 - 24

3 y = 14 x + 102

$y = \frac{14}{3} + \frac{102}{3}$

$y = \frac{14}{3} x + 34$

Slope - intercept form y= mx +C

Slope - intercept form $y = \frac{14}{3} x + 34$
