What is the equation of a line perpendicular to y equals negative three x plus four that passes through -1 6?

You solve this type of problem using the following steps. 1) Write your original equation in slope-intercept form, that is, solved for "y". (The line is already in that form in this case). You can read off the slope directly: in an equation of the form: y = mx + b m is the slope. 2) Calculate the slope of the perpendicular line. Since the product of the slopes of perpendicular lines is -1, you can divide -1 by the slope you got in part (1). 3) Use the generic equation y - y1 = m(x - x1), for a line that has a given slope "m" and passes through point (x1, y1). Replace the given coordinates (variables x1 and y1). Simplify the resulting equation, if required.


What are the different types of equations and their generic formulas in algebra 2?

1. Linear Equations y= mx + b (standard form of linear equation) 2. Quadratic Equations y= ax^2+bx+c 3. Exponential Equations y= ab^x 4. Cubic Equations y=ax^3+ bx^2+cx+d 5. Quartic Equations y= ax^4+ bx^3+ cx^2+ dx+ e 6. Equation of a circle (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2= r^2 7. Constant equation y= 9 (basically y has to equal a number for it to be a constant equation). 8. Proportional equations y=kx; y= k/x, etc.

Algorithm to find the roots of a quadratic equation?

The easiest way to write a generic algorithm is to simply use the quadratic formula. If it is a computer program, ask the user for the coefficients a, b, and c of the generic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, then just replace them in the quadratic formula.

How do you write a balanced nuclear equation for gold-191 undergoes electron capture?

Nuclear notations are used to represent the decay of one element into another. The generic formula for a radioactive element is X-M = X-(M-4) + He-4 where X is the symbol for the element, M represents the mass number for the element. An equation for gold-191 may be Au-191 = Au-187 + He-4.


How does a function differ from an equation?

A function is a rule to calculate a variable, based on one or more other variables. It may be written as an equation, but unlike a generic equation, in a function, for every value of the input variables, it may ONLY have ONE result.
