Suppose m is in the line given by the equation 6x-3y=7, and suppose n is the line perpendicular to m and passing nd through the point (6,2). if k is the line of slope 5 and y-intercept 1, what is the x-coordinate of the intersection of n and k? express your answer in a common fraction.

The x co-ordinate o intersection of line k and n is

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The equation of line m is 6 x - 3 y = 7

So, in the standard form , line equation is

y = a x + c  , where a is the slope

So,  6 x - 3 y = 7 can be written as

3 y = 6 x - 7

or,  y = 2 x -       ........1

So, slope of this line = a = 2

Now, The line n is perpendicular to line m and passing through line ( 6 , 2 )

So, Slope of line n = b

For , perpendicular lines , products of slope = - 1

Or, a × b = -1

∴  b = -

I.e b = -

So,equation of line n with slope b and passing through line ( 6 , 2 ) is

y - = b ( x - )

or, y - 2 =  - ( x - 6 )

or, 2 × ( y - 2 ) =  - 1 ( x - 6 )

or, 2 y - 4 = - x + 6

or, x + 2 y -10 = 0          ........2

Again, equation of line k with slope 5 and y intercept = 1

For y intercept , x coordinate = 0

y = c x + c

or, 1 = c× ( 0 ) + c

Or, c = 1

Or, equation of line k is

y = 5 x + 1           ..........3

Now intersection of line k and n is

put the value of y from eq 3 into eq 2

I.e x + 2 × (  5 x + 1  )-10 = 0  

Or, x + 10 x + 2 - 10 = 0

or, 11 x - 8 = 0

or 11 x = 8

∴  x =

Hence The x co-ordinate o intersection of line k and n is  Answer

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
