Perpendicular lines will have negative reciprocal slopes. What that means is if u have a slope of 1/2, to find the negative reciprocal, flip the slope and change the sign.......flip 2/1, change the sign -2/1 or just -2. So the negative reciprocal for the slope of 1/2 is -2.
A. y = 1/5x + 3.....slope here is 1/5, so for a perpendicular line, u r gonna need an equation with the slope of -5.....and that would be : y + 3 = -5(x + 2).
B. Parallel lines will have the same slope. y = 5x - 2...the slope here is 5...so a parallel line will have a slope of 5.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 5
(8,-2)...x = 8 and y = -2
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y intercept
-2 = 5(8) + b
-2 = 40 + b
-2 - 40 = b
-42 = b
so ur parallel equation is : y = 5x -42
Answer:
You can either use substation or you can use elimination on both of the problems
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following expressions:
70,000,000
7,000,000
If we divide the first expression by the second we have:
Thus, we have that the first expression is 10 times greater than the second expression.
Answer:
70,000,000 is 10 times greater than 7,000,000
180
180- 40=140
140 / 2= 70
Given that they follow the format for straight lines and are therefore straight lines, they would only intersect once and that would be at (0,1) where they both have a y intersect.
Hope this helps :)
