Find the equation of the line that passes through (1,3) and is perpendicular to y=1−2x. Leave your answer in the form y=mx+c

The equation of the line  that passes through (1,3) and is perpendicular to y=1−2x is y=1/2x+5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can rewrite the original equation as y=-2x+1

To find an equation's perpendicular slope, you take the reciprocal of it and negate it, therefore the perpendicular slope is -2 -> 1/-2 -> 1/2

So far, we have y=1/2x+b, but to find the y-intercept, b, we would need to plug in (1,3) and solve for b:

y=1/2x+b

3=1/2(1)+b

3=1/2+b

5/2=b

Therefore, your final equation is y=1/2x+5/2

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
