Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to get -1
y=mx+b is the slope intercept equation
m=slope
so get into y=mx+b form
-x+2y=4
solve for y
add x both sides
2y=x+4
divide by 2 both sides
y=(1/2)x+2
the slope is 1/2
perppendicular line slope multiplies to -1
1/2 times what=-1
times 2/1 both sides
what=-2/1=-2
y=-2x+b
find b
we are given a point is (-2,1)
when x=-2, y=1
1=-2(-2)+b
1=4+b
minus 3 both sides
-3=b
so the equation is
y=-2x-3
your teacher might want it in standard form (ax+by=c) so
add 2x both sides
2x+y=-3 is an equation
so y=-2x-3 is correct (slope intercept form)
2x+y=-3 is also correct (standard form)
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
x = -2 represents a vertical line that intersects the x axis at the point (-2, 0). Since the line is vertical, the slope is undefined making it not have a positive slope.
Best of Luck!
well, let's split the hours in minutes, so since 1 hr is 60 minutes, so he can walk 2.833 miles in 60 minutes, well, 3 hrs is 3*60 = 180 minutes, then we add 15 minutes, that's 195 minutes.
if he can walk 2.833 miles in 60 minutes, how long will it be for 195 minutes?
Answer:450 i think
Step-by-step explanation:
Quotient' means you will divide the numbers.
Also, to be 'no greater' means to be 'less than or equal to'.
