Sara is trying to find an equation for a line that passes through (5, 2) and is perpendicular to 3x + 2y = 15. Explain the steps

that Sara could take to determine the equation.
A) Write 3x + 2y = 15 in slope-intercept form. Then, substitute the slope of that line and the point (5, 2) into the point-slope formula.
B) Write 3x + 2y = 15 in slope-intercept form. Then, substitute the reciprocal of the slope of that line and the point (5, 2) into the point-slope formula.
C) Write 3x + 2y = 15 in slope-intercept form. Then, substitute the opposite reciprocal of the slope of that line and the point (5, 2) into the point-slope formula.
D) Write 3x + 2y = 15 in slope-intercept form. Then, substitute the opposite reciprocal of the slope of that line and the point (0, 0) into the point-slope formula.

How do i solve for x
Vladimir79 [104]
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction.
-3x + 6 <= 24
subtract 6 from both sides.
-3 x <= 18
divide both sides by -3, since you're dividing an inequality by a negative number you have to change the direction of the inequality sign.
x >= -6

Find the value of x and y. WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
g100num [7]

Answer:

x = 30

y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>All the angles are </em></u><u><em>90°</em></u><u><em>, so set 6y and 3x equal to 90, like so:</em></u>

6y = 90

<u><em>Divide both sides by 6:</em></u>

y = 15

<u>Solving for x:</u>

3x = 90

<em><u>Divide both sides by 3:</u></em>

x = 30
