What is the equation of a line that passes through the origin and is perpendicular to the line 2y=4x-6y+4?

y = - 2 x

Step-by-step explanation:

The catch to this one (and there is a catch) is that the y intercept is at 0,0.

All you need is the slope and that means you have to solve the equation for y

2y = 4x - 6y + 4     Add 6y to both sides

2y + 6y = 4x + 4    Combine terms on the left

8y = 4x + 4            Divide by 8

y = 4x/8 + 4/8       Reduce 4/8 to 1/2

y = 4x/8 + 1/2

y = 1/2 x + 1/2

Nowyou are all set to answer the question.

m1 * m2 = - 1

m1 = 1/2  because the coefficient in front of the x is the slope (5/8 in this case). m1 and m2 are both slopes.

1 /2 * m2 = - 1        multiply both sides by 2

(1/2)*(2)*m2 = -1 * (2)

m2 = - 2

The slope of the equation you want is - 2

y = -2 x is the answer

The graph below shows the two equations.

answer: -1

the most boring ever written

step-by-step explanation:

i am writing something. yes, i plan to make it the most boring thing ever written. i go to the store. a car is parked. many cars are parked or moving. some are blue. some are tan. they have windows. in the store, there are items for sale. these include such things as soap, detergent, magazines, and lettuce. you can enhance your life with these products. soap can be used for bathing, be it in a bathtub or in a shower. apply the soap to your body and rinse. detergent is used to wash clothes. place your dirty clothes into a washing machine and add some detergent as directed on the box. select the appropriate settings on your washing machine and you should be ready to begin. magazines are stapled reading material made with glossy paper, and they cover a wide variety of topics, ranging from news and politics to business and stock market information. some magazines are concerned with more recreational topics, like sports card collecting or different kinds of hairstyles. lettuce is a vegetable.
