A line has a slope of - 4/5. Which ordered pairs could be points on a line that is perpendicular to this line? Check all that apply.

a. (-2,0) and (2,5)
b. (-4,5) and (4,-5)
c. (-3,4) and (2,0)
d. (1,-1) and (6,-5)
e. (2,-1) and (10,9)

Respuesta :

we know that

if two lines are perpendicular

then the product of their slopes is equal to minus one

so

[tex]m1*m2=-1[/tex]

in this problem we have

[tex]m1=-\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

the value of m2 must be equal to

[tex]m2=-\frac{1}{m1} =-\frac{1}{(-4/5)}=\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

[tex]m=\frac{(y2-y1)}{(x2-x1)}[/tex]

Find the slopes of each of ordered pairs and compare with m2

case a) [tex](-2,0)\ and\ (2,5)[/tex]

Substitute in the formula

[tex]m=\frac{(5-0)}{(2+2)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{(5)}{(4)}[/tex]

The slope is equal to m2

so

The ordered pair case a)  could be points on a line that is perpendicular to the given  line

case b) [tex](-4,5)\ and\ (4,-5)[/tex]

Substitute in the formula

[tex]m=\frac{(-5-5)}{(4+4)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{(-10)}{(8)}[/tex]

[tex]m=-\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

The slope is not equal to m2

so

The ordered pair case b)  could not be points on a line that is perpendicular to the given  line

case c) [tex](-3,4)\ and\ (2,0)[/tex]

Substitute in the formula

[tex]m=\frac{(0-4)}{(2+3)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{(-4)}{(5)}[/tex]

The slope is not equal to m2

so

The ordered pair case c)  could not be points on a line that is perpendicular to the given  line

case d) [tex](1,-1)\ and\ (6,-5)[/tex]

Substitute in the formula

[tex]m=\frac{(-5+1)}{(6-1)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{(-4)}{(5)}[/tex]

The slope is not equal to m2

so

The ordered pair case d)  could not be points on a line that is perpendicular to the given  line

case e) [tex](2,-1)\ and\ (10,9)[/tex]

Substitute in the formula

[tex]m=\frac{(9+1)}{(10-2)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{(10)}{(8)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

The slope is equal to m2

so

The ordered pair case e)  could be points on a line that is perpendicular to the given  line

therefore

the answer is

[tex](-2,0)\ and\ (2,5)\\(2,-1)\ and\ (10,9)[/tex]

The points on the line are:

[tex]\text{A}. (-2,0) and (2,5)\\\text{E}. (2,1) and (10,9)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

The slope of the line = -4/5

Now as we know that the two lines are perpendicular

So,

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

So, the slope of the second line is :

[tex]m_2=5/4[/tex]

Now , check for the options given:

And slope [tex]m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

(A) The slope of the line passing through the points (-2,0) and (2,5) is :

[tex]m=(5-0)/(2+2)[/tex]

[tex]m=5/4[/tex]

Hence the slope is equal to [tex]m_2[/tex].

Similarly,

(B)The slope of the line passing through the points (-4,5) and (4,-5) is :

[tex]m=(-5-5)/(4+4)[/tex]

[tex]m=-5/4[/tex]

Hence the slope not is equal to [tex]m_2[/tex].

(C) The slope of the line passing through the points (-3,4) and (2,0) is :

[tex]m=(0-4)/(2+3)[/tex]

[tex]m=-4/5[/tex]

Hence the slope is not equal to [tex]m_2[/tex].

(D) The slope of the line passing through the points (1,-1) and (6,5) is :

[tex]m=(-5+1)/(6-5)[/tex]

[tex]m=-4/5[/tex]

Hence the slope is not equal to [tex]m_2[/tex].

(E) The slope of the line passing through the points (2,-1) and (10,9) is :

[tex]m=(9+1)/(10-2)[/tex]

[tex]m=5/4[/tex]

Hence the slope is equal to [tex]m_2[/tex].

Hence, the points on the lines are:

[tex]\text{A}. (-2,0) and (2,5)\\\text{E}. (2,1) and (10,9)[/tex]
