Answer:
-1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the slope of the line through the points
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-4-8)/(1-3)
= -12/-2
=6
Now we need to find the slope of the line that is perpendicular
Perpendicular lines multiply to -1
6 * mp = -1
mp = -1/6
Answer:
-10x^2 +9+8x^2-5x+7=-2x^2-5x+16
Answer:
y - x = - 2 b
Step-by-step explanation:
Given-
3 x + 2 y = 5 a + b...................(i)
4 x - 3 y = a + 7 b.....................(ii)
<em><u>Multiply by 3 and 2 in equation (i) & (ii) respectively-</u></em>
<em><u>Add equation (iii) & (iv)-</u></em>
9 x + 6 y = 15 a + 3 a...................(iii)
<u>8 x - 6 y = 2 a + 14 b</u> ...................(iv)
17 x = 17 a + 17 b
<u>x = a + b</u>
Put x = a + b in equation (i)-
<em>2 y = 5 a + b - 3 a - 3 b</em>
<em>2 y = 2 a - 2 b</em>
<u>y = a - b </u>
<em>∴ y - x = a - b - ( a + b )</em>
<em>y - x = a - b - a - b</em>
y - x = - 2 b
