To find the m(slope) of our graph we can take two points from the graph, im going to use (0,2) and (1,8) the formula for slope is y2-y1/x2-x1
Plug the points in to get 8-2/1-0
The slope of this equation is 6.
For the y-intercept we just find where the line meets the y-axis and that is at 2.
The equation for this graph is y=6x+2
Answer:
The equation of the line that is <em>perpendicular</em> to <em>y = 2x + 2</em> is
<em>y = -1/2x</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The original equation is y = 2x + 2; it's slope is <em>2</em>
Any line perpendicular to this equation would have to have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.
Example:
y = 2x + 2 so,
the perpendicular line's slope must be -1/2
Write a new equation with the new slope:
y = -1/2x + b
We know that this line passes through (8, -4)
Plug these coordinates in the equation to find b, the y-intercept
-4 = -1/2 (8) + b
-4 = -4 + b
0 = b
b = 0
We do not have to write y = -1/2x + 0
So, our final answer is "y = -1/2x is perpendicular to y = 2x+2"
Converse Perpendicular Transversal Theorem.
If two lines are perpendicular to the same line, then the lines are parallel.
You would need one because you arent yet to 20 so it takes one tenth for example;
1.7 or 7/10
Thats my guess tho man if it is more complicated than that, SORRRYYYY
