We have a line y = 1/3x -6
We want a line that is perpendicular to this line
Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1
1/3 * m = -1
3 * 1/3 *m = -1 * 3
m = -3
The slope of the perpendicular line is -3
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = -3x+b
We have a point on the line ( 7 ,-23)
Substitute this point into the equation
-23 = -3(7)+b
-23 = -21+b
Add 21 to each side
-23+21 = -21+21+b
-2 = b
y = -3x-2
In slope intercept form, the line perpendicular passing through (7,-23) is
y = -3x-2
Answer:
A=72CM^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 72cm^2 because the area of a triangle is h x b divided by two because the triangle is half of a square, since the square is side times side, the answer is 12x12 divided by two, wich is 144/2. The final answer is 72
Answer:
P (5 , 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
P (x,y) partition A (x₁ , y₁) B (x₂ , y₂) into ratio AM:MB = a:b = 2:1 ... a=2 , b=1
x = (bx₁ + ax₂) / (a+b)
= (1 * 3 + 2 * 6) / (2 + 1)
= 15/3
= 5
y = (by₁ + ay₂) / (a+b)
= (1 * 4 + 2 * 10) / (2 + 1)
= 24/3
= 8
P (5 , 8)
