Jacob is using coordinate system to design a rhombus-shaped building. Side LaTeX: \frac{ }{AB}A B passes through point (6, 6) and is perpendicular to the graph of LaTeX: y=\frac{3}{4}x-11y = 3 4 x − 11. Side LaTeX: \frac{ }{CD}C D is parallel to side LaTeX: \frac{ }{AB} and passes through point (−6, 10). What is the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that includes side LaTeX: \frac{ }{CD}

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]y= \frac{-4}{3}x +2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]AB = (6,6)[/tex]

perpendicular to

[tex]y = \frac{3}{4}x - 11[/tex]

CD parallel to AB

CD passes through (-6,10)

Required

Determine the slope-intercept form of line CD

First, we need to determine the slope of AB

For [tex]y = \frac{3}{4}x - 11[/tex]

Slope, [tex]m_1 = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Represent slope of AB with m2

Since both are perpendicular:

[tex]m_2 = -1/m_1[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = -1/\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = -1 * \frac{4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = \frac{-4}{3}[/tex]

To determine the equation of CD, we need to determine its slope:

Since CD is parallel to AB, then

[tex]m = m_2 = \frac{-4}{3}[/tex]

The slope intercept form of CD is as follows;

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

Where:

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (-6,10)[/tex]

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y - 10 = \frac{-4}{3}(x - (-6))[/tex]

[tex]y - 10 = \frac{-4}{3}(x +6)[/tex]

Open Bracket

[tex]y - 10 = \frac{-4}{3}x +\frac{-4}{3} * 6[/tex]

[tex]y - 10 = \frac{-4}{3}x -4 * 2[/tex]

[tex]y - 10 = \frac{-4}{3}x -8[/tex]

Add 10 to both sides

[tex]y - 10 + 10= \frac{-4}{3}x -8 + 10[/tex]

[tex]y= \frac{-4}{3}x +2[/tex]
