Yes that is right so you just plug in the days as x then multiply the new x with the number to the left of it then add the number on the right and finally that is your y
First you need to rewrite the equation in the form y = mx +b:
2y = x-4
Divide all terms by 2:
2y / 2 = x/2 - 4/2
Simplify:
y = 1/2x - 2
The slope of the line is 1/2.
A perpendicular line has a slope of the negative reciprocal, which would be -2.
Now using the point slope method:
y - y1 = m(x-x1)
Using the given point of (8,-4) and m = -2
you get:
y +4 = -2(x-8)
Simplify:
y +4 = -2x +16
Now subtract 4 from both sides to get the final equation:
y = -2x +12
Answer:
1 1/2 or 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2 angles given are vertical angles, which mean they are the same.
So we have: 3x +1 = 64
Subtract 1 from each side:
3x = 63
Divide both sides by 3:
X = 63 / 3
X = 21
The answer is A.
