Write an equation of the line passing through the given point and satisfying the given condition. Give the equation (a) in slope-intercept form and (b) in standard form. (8,6); perpendicular to 2x - y = 4
(a) Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

y =  -x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of a line that passes through the point (8,6) and perpendicular to the equation 2x - y = 4, we will follow the steps below:

first write the equation 2x - y = 4 in a standard form

we will find the slope of our equation using this equation

2x - y = 4

y = 2x -4

comparing the above with

y = mx  + c

m = 2

= -1  ( slope of perpendicular equations)

2 = -1

 = -1/2

our slope m = -1/2

We can now go ahead and form our equation

=8   =6

y- = m (x-)

y-6 = -(x-8)

y-6 =  -x + 4

y=  -x+4+6

y =  -x + 10

answer: y=0 if that is what u r looking for

7.25

step-by-step explanation:

we know that 7 equals to 7.0. we also know that 1/4=0.25. so we can add the two together and we get 7.25
