Answer:

y=(-5/3)x+29

Step-by-step explanation:

we will use the base formula y=mx+b

In order to be perpendicular, the slope must be the flipped fraction and have the opposite sign, so our m is (-5/3)

y=(-5/3)x+b

You can plug in the (9,14) point in order to find the b

14=(-5/3)(9)+b

14=(-45/3)+b

14=(-15)+b

14+15=b

29=b

and so altogether our equation is y=(-5/3)x+29

Which graph represents 9x2 – 16y2 – 54x + 64y – 127 = 0?

klasskru [66]

Answer:

Right now I'm wondering what kind of class you are taking to get such a weird graph, but I graphed it for you on the screenie.

Step-by-step explanation:

You should though recheck your question for exponents, as 9x2 could be interpreted differently.

Since exponents to not transition well here, I can assume that it was a 9x^2, so please add an exponent symbol ^ between the variables and exponents next time.

Answer:

a = 19

-6 = -2a + 32

-32 -32

-38 = -2a
