Question Write an equation of the line passing through the point A(0, 3) that is perpendicular to the line y = −1/2x−6

Answer:

The equation would be y=2x+3 I am pretty sure

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because you take the slope which is 2 from the line y=-1/2x-6. To find the slope perpendicular to the line, you need to find the exact opposite of the slope: -1/2, and in this case, it would be 2.

(Ex: if it was -3/4, you would need to use a slope of 4/3 since it is the opposite)

Then you take that slope (2) and the point (0, 3) and put it into "y-y1=m(x-x1)"

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-3=2(x-0)

-distribute the 2-

y-3=2x-0

-add 3 on both sides-

so equation would be y=2x+3

Not sure if this is all correct, but I hope it helps! :)

A local gym charges a $100 initial membership fee and $19 for each month you stay a member. What are the x and y intercepts?
guapka [62]

Answer:

  • y-intercept = 100
  • x- intercept = -5.26

Step-by-step explanation:

  • $100 initial membership fee
  • $19  monthly fee

<u>Function of relationship:</u>

  • y = 19x + 100

<u>y- intercept:</u>

  • x =0 ⇒ y = 19*0 + 100 ⇒ y = 100

<u>x - intercept:</u>

  • y = 0 ⇒ 0 = 19x + 100 ⇒ 19x = -100 ⇒ x = -100/19 ⇒ x = -5.26
