Answer:
The equation that represents the new path is y=(1/2)x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the slope of the give line
we have
y=-2x-7
so
the slope m is equal to
m=-2
step 2
Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line
Remember that
If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal of each other
so
we have
m=-2 -----> slope of the given line
therefore
The slope of the perpendicular line is equal to
m=1/2
step 3
With m=1/2 and the point (-2,-3) find the equation of the line
y-y1=m(x-x1)
substitute
y+3=(1/2)(x+2)
y=(1/2)x+1-3
y=(1/2)x-2 -----> equation that represent the new path
Answer:the answer is B : -250
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=2-1/2y
Step-by-step explanation:
12x+6y=24
12x=24-6y
x=24/12-6/12y
x=2-1/2y
Okay, so this is actually relatively simple:
Go up 44 units on the y-axis, where x=0, and put a point. Now, since the slope is 3x, you move 3 units up, and 1 unit right, and place a point. Do this about 3 times, continuing to make points up 3, over 1. You can also move 3 units down and 1 unit left from the point at (0,44) because by moving down, you move -3 units, and by moving left, you move -1 units. This causes the negatives to cancel out, and you keep the slope of 3.
I hope this explanation makes sense; good luck!
To solve algebraically:
Plug in any number for x, besides 0 because the y-intercept is (0,44). We will use 1 for our x.
y=44+3x
y=44+3(1)
y=44+3
y=47
And so, (1, 47) would be our point
You can use -1, as well.
y=44+3(-1)
y=44-3
y=41
(-1, 44) would be our point
