Question 213099This question is from textbook Algebra 2
: 1. What is the graph of a line that passes through (3,3), perpendicular to
graph of y=3.
2. What is the graph of a line that passes through (2,-5), parallel to
graph of x=4
3. If the graph of the equation ax+3y=9 is perpendicular to the graph of
the equation 3x+y=-4, find the value of a This question is from textbook Algebra 2
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Step 1. What is the graph of a line that passes through (3,3), perpendicular to
graph of y=3.
x and y axis are perpendicular to each other.
ANSWER
Note: x=3 is perpendicular to y=3 AND passes through point (3,3)
Step 2. What is the graph of a line that passes through (2,-5), parallel to
graph of x=4
ANSWER
x=2 is parallel to x=4 and passes through (2,-5)
Step 3. If the graph of the equation ax+3y=9 is perpendicular to the graph of
the equation 3x+y=-4, find the value of a
For the lines to be perpendicular the slopes have their product to be = -1.
Slope of line 3x+y=-4 is -3 since the slope intercept form for this equation is y=-3x-4
Slope of line perpendicular to this line must be since (-3)(1/3)=-1
So let's take and put it in slope-intercept form and find a.
slope intercept form where -a/3 is the slope so a=-1.
ANSWER is a=-1.
The graphs are shown below
I hope the above steps were helpful.
