Find the equation of the lines perpendicular and parallel to 2x-3y=8 line through the point (-2,-4)

Answer:

y= -1.5x-7 is the equation of the perpendicular line

Here's why:

when we convert 2x-3y=8 to standard form, we get y= 2/3x-8/3. This means the perpendicular line will have a slope of the negative reciprocal of the original one, so the perpendicular slope is -1.5. When we substitute the points (-2,-4) into the equation y=-1.5x+b, we get a b value of -7. So the perpendicular line equation is y= -1.5x-7. You can't the parallel line equation with the points (-2,-4) as it is part of the line 2x-3y=8.

Whats the slope of this line?
zhannawk [14.2K]
Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (10 - 70)/(5 - (-15)) = -60/(5 + 15) = -60/20 = -3

maria [59]

Considering that the data is only noted and not changed, this is an example of an observational study.

<h3>What are observational and experimental studies?</h3>

  • Experimental study: In an experimental study, there is an intervention in a sample, and it's effect is studied.
  • Observational study: In an observational study, the sample is just analyzed, without any intervention.

In this problem, the data, which is the number of miles traveled, is only analyzed, no interventions are made, hence this is an example of an observational study.
