Question

write an equation of the line containing the given points & perpendicular to the given line. (0,5) ; 8x+5y=3

Answer 1

y = log x
If y = 10, then what is x?

Answer 2

(-8x+3)/5=y

Answer 3

y=-8/5x +3/5

Answer 4

any questions on what I did so far?

Answer 5

can you show me how you got that?

Answer 6

your equation was
8x+5y=3
right?

Answer 7

right

Answer 8

I was equation of y in terms of x

Answer 9

wait is this the answer to my question?

Answer 10

So I subtracted 8x from both side
I got
5y=-8x+3

Answer 11

any questions so far djm?

Answer 12

so this isnt the answer to my question?

Answer 13

don't quite understand your statement of equation of y in terms of x

Answer 14

we are describing y in terms of x
another way to explain would be
what do you have to do to x so it equals y

Answer 15

does this help?

Answer 16

ya that is a little better

Answer 17

so getting back to our equation
5y=-8x+3

Answer 18

ok

Answer 19

we want y by itself so we divide by 5 BOTH SIDES.

Answer 20

ok

Answer 21

y=-8/5x+3/5

Answer 22

any questions so far?

Answer 23

no good so far

Answer 24

Now we have to go back to the original question

Answer 25

ok sorry had to refresh again

Answer 26

i need help please T_T no one wants to help

Answer 27

"perpendicular to the given line" is the keyword from your question

Answer 28

okay

Answer 29

PLEASE PLEASE! IM SORRY! BUT I NEED HELP,T___T

Answer 30

parallel lines have same slope
perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slope

Answer 31

right

Answer 32

going back to our equation
y=-8/5x+3/5

Answer 33

so noes going to help me!

Answer 34

>:( fine, feel my wrath of rage

Answer 35

slope is -8/5
opposite reciprocal is 5/8
point slope form is
y - y1=m(x-x1)
from question
(y-5)=5/8(x-0)

Answer 36

y-5=5/8(x-0)
that is your equation
any question

Answer 37

ok that is where I was having problems was with the last formula u used. thank you very much for taking the time to explain it to me.
