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

Mathematics

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.

The vertex of this parabola is at (3,5). When the Y value is 6X value is negative one what is the coefficient of the squared ter
iren2701 [21]

We know that equation of a parabola is given by :-

y = a(x-h)² + k

Where (h,k) is the vertex of parabola and (x,y) is any point on its curve.

Given that vertex of parabola is (3,5) and one point (x,y) is (6,-1).

We can plug the given information in the equation of parabola and solve it for value of 'a' :-

-1 = a(6 - 3)² + 5

-1 = a(3)² + 5

-1 = 9a + 5

9a = -1 -5 = -6

a = \frac{-6}{9} = \frac{-2}{3}

a = \frac{-2}{3} is the final answer.

7. The graph shows the height, h, in feet, of water
MariettaO [177]

The domain is talking about the "range" of the horizontal axis therefore you will be focusing on the x-intercepts.

The answer will be All non-negative real numbers less than or equal to 18

because the x-intercepts lies at 0 and 18. The answer makes sense because the furthest you can go is 18 ft and the closest you could go is 0 ft. The "all non-negative real numbers" puts a restriction on the least distance it could travel so that means that it stops at 0 ft because if you go any further, you will end up in the negatives and it clearly states "non-negative".
