What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, for the line through the point

Mathematics

Answer:

A perpendicular line has an opposite-reciprocal slope.

The slope given is m = 5. So the perpendicular slope is m = -\frac{1}{5}.

Now subsitute your (x, y) values to find the y-intercept, b.

y = -\frac{1}{5} x + b

-1 = -\frac{1}{5}( 3) + b

-1 = -\frac{3}{5}+ b

-1 + \frac{3}{5} = b

-\frac{5}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = b = -\frac{2}{5}

Answer: y = -\frac{1}{5} x - \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the distance between the y-intercepts of the lines? Adding a picture please help
DerKrebs [107]

The equation of a line is:

y = mx + c

The m is the gradient of the line, and the c is the y-intercept of the line

That means that the y-intercept of [y = -4x + 3]  is 3

and the y-intercept of [y = -4x + 4] is 4

So the distance between the two y-intercepts is:

4 - 3 = <u>1</u>

What is the solution set of {x | x &gt; -3} {x | x &lt; 3}?
givi [52]

x > -3

x < 3

<em><u>-3 < x < 3</u></em>

question didn't mention about "x is real number, or positive, or negative etc".. so we can't say anything more

for example: x can be -2,-1,0,1,2

but if only positive, x can be = 1,2

" " negative, x can be = -1, -2

Hope this helps ^-^
