JK = JH + HK

JK = 82

JH = 22

So, HK = 82 - 22 = 60, or choice (C).

Find the equation of a line perpendicular to y - 12 = 2x – 8 that passes through the point (2, 3). (answer in slope-intercept fo

Alla [95]

Answer:

$\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a Line

We can find the equation of a line by using two sets of data. It can be a pair of ordered pairs, or the slope and a point, or the slope and the y-intercept, or many other combinations of appropriate data.

We are given a line

$y - 12 = 2x -8$

And are required to find a line perpendicular to that line. Let's find the slope of the given line. Solving for y

$y = 2x +4$

The coefficient of the x is the slope

$m=2$

The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of m, thus

$\displaystyle m'=-\frac{1}{2}$

We know the second line passes through (2,3). That is enough information to find the second equation:

$y-y_o=m'(x-x_o)$

$\displaystyle y-3=-\frac{1}{2}(x-2)$

Operating

$\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}(x-2)+3$

Simplifying

$\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4$

That is the equation in slope-intercept form. Intercept: y=4

Substitution method x-7y=-9 -x+8y=10

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

x = -2, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

x-7y=-9---------------------equation 1

-x+8y=10-------------------equation 2

From equation 1, make x the subject of formula

x=7y-9----------------------equation 3

substituting x=7y-9 in equation 2,

-(7y-9)+8y=10

Expanding bracket

-7y+9+8y=10

Collecting like terms

8y-7y=10-9

y=1

substituting y=1 in 3

x=7(1)-9

x=7-9

x=-2

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Yes, the scale factor is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you times the length, 3, and the width, 5, by 4, you'll get 12 as your length and 20 as your width.

what is the equation of the line that passes through (3,-1) and is parallel to y=-4X + 1? give your answer in slope-intercept fo

Butoxors [25]

the answer is y=4x-11

use y+1=4x-12

move 1 to negative because move to the other side

so the answer is y=4x-11

he graph represents function 1, and the equation represents function 2: A coordinate plane graph is shown. A horizontal line is

Reika [66]

Answer:

The answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of change of function is given by :

$\frac{(f(x_{2})-f(x_{1}))}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

For function y = 6,

rate of change =

$=\frac{(f(x_{2})-f(x_{1}))}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\=\frac{6-6}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\=0$

because the function is independent of x.

For function y = 2·x + 7,

rate of change =

$=\frac{(f(x_{2})-f(x_{1}))}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\=\frac{2\cdot x_{2}+7-2\cdot x_{1}-7}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\=\frac{2\cdot x_{2}-2\cdot x_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\=\frac{2\cdot (x_{2}-x_{1})}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\=2$

So, the rate of change of 2 is greater than rate of change of function 1 by 2 - 0 = 2.
