What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line
that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through
the point (2, -1)?
y=- 2x - 2 / 2
y=- 2x - 5 / 5
y = 3x - 3
y = 3x - 7

Given:

Given that the graph of the equation of the line.

The line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (2,-1)

We need to determine the equation of the line perpendicular to the given line.

Slope of the given line:

The slope of the given line can be determined by substituting any two coordinates from the line in the slope formula,

Substituting the coordinates (-1,3) and (2,2), we get;

Thus, the slope of the given line is

Slope of the perpendicular line:

The slope of the perpendicular line can be determined by

Substituting , we get;

simplifying, we get;

Thus, the slope of the perpendicular line is 3.

Equation of the perpendicular line:

The equation of the perpendicular line can be determined using the formula,

Substituting and the point (2,-1) in the above formula, we have;

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular line is

Hence, Option d is the correct answer.

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
