Question

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (1, 8) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y=x2+3 ? MY ANSWER y=-2x+10

Answer 1

@Shadow can you check my answer please

Answer 2

@umm

Answer 3

what is x2

Answer 4

slope?

Answer 5

Yeah but that looks like x^2 which is a parabola

Answer 6

that doesnt have a slope, so I assume you wrote the slope incorrectly.

Answer 7

i did oops its x/2

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

Thanks Shadow the answer was y=-2x=10

Answer 10

Point-Slope Form
\[y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})\]
\[y - 8 = -2(x - 1)\]
\[y - 8 = -2x + 2\]
\[y = -2x + 10\]

Yeah you're correct.

Answer 11

Thank you i made an 80 on the quiz cuz i got that question wrong
