Write the slope-intercept equation of the line perpendicular to y = 5/2 x - 2, which passes through the point (0, 2). A. y = 5x + 2 B. y = -2/5x + 2 C. y = 2x + 5 D. y = 1/2x + 5
do you know slope intercept formula? first of all
nope
are you familiar with x axis y axis
yes
cools lets start from there
okay
do you know what a slope (non math)
yes
:)
isnt the slope formula y=mx+b? or is it y1+y2=.....cant remeber
ok slope intercept formula is y = m x + b y = y value x = x value m = slope
oh
o ya i fogot b = y intercept (ill get to that later) what slope is rise (change or y) y = ------------------- ( x ) run (change of x)
okay
|dw:1354733828607:dw| not to scale rise 2 --- (x ) run 1 in fraction form 2 -- = 2 1 y = 2x
good so far?
yep followin yuh like ah trail:)
now standard slope intercept form y = mx + b i left out b = y intercept i left out in the beginning i am going back to in now if i put y = 2x + 3 the I draw just starts from 3
okay still getting it:)
