Answer:
y=1/4 x +11
Step-by-step explanation:
So this is a word problem but it isn't too bad to figure what they want: They are looking for a line that is perpendicular to y=-4x-6 and goes through (-4,10).
So we are looking for an equation whose slope is the opposite reciprocal of the given equation's slope.
The given equation has a slope of -4
The opposite reciprocal of -4 is 1/4 so that is the slope of our new line.
So we know our equation is in the form of y=1/4 x+b
Now we are given that this line should go through (-4,10) so plug it in to find b.
10=1/4 * (-4)+b
10=-1+b
11=b
So the equation is y=1/4 x+11
Answer:
y = x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
In point slope form (y=a(x-h)+k):
y = 1(x - 5) + 0
simplifies to:
y = x - 5
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 2 point questions, y = 3 point questions
x + y = 40
2x + 3y = 92
Solving this we get x = 28, y = 12 so the answer is 28.
Right triangles. This only works if it's a right triangle, cuz right triangles have hypotenuses.
