Question

The second new path will increase access to the gazebo. It will be perpendicular to the the existing path and pass through g (7,2). Which equation represents which this new this path on the map

A.y=-4x+30

B.y=-1/4x+15/4

C.y=1/4x+1/4

D.y=4x-26

Answer 1

C. y=1/4x+1/4

Explanation:

Like the first path, this path will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of -4, the slope of the path passing through F(4,14) and G(7,2).

Substitute 1/4 and the coordinates of point G into slope-intercept form, and solve for b

Then, substitute 1/4 for m and 1/4 for b to find the equation of the line that’s perpendicular to the original path and passes through G(7,2)

Answer 2

C. y = 1/4x + 1/4
