Y= -1/3x + 2

Important takeaway is that the slopes of two perpendicular lines are always negative reciprocals.

\huge\boxed{y-5&=-\frac{1}{3}(x+9)}

First, we'll find the slope of the new line. The first line has a slope of 3. Take the negative reciprocal of this (Flip the numerator and denominator, then multiply by -1) to get -\frac{1}{3} for the new slope.

Then, we'll use the point-slope form to make the new equation, where m is the slope and (x_1,y_1) is a point on the line:

\begin{aligned}y-y_1&=m(x-x_1)\\y-5&=-\frac{1}{3}(x-(-9))\\y-5&=-\frac{1}{3}(x+9)\end{aligned}

Which can be the first step in finding the equation of the line that passes through the points (5, -4) and (-1, 8) in slope-inte
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

y = -2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = (-4 - 8)/(5 + 1)

= -12/6

= -2

Equation

y - 8 = -2(x + 1)

y - 8 = -2x - 2

y = -2x + 6  <-----------slope-intercept form

What is the math outlier ? ***ANSWER PLEASE***
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Math:9.75

Science:6

Step-by-step explanation:

Not 100% sure on those answers but here is hot to figure the problem out:

A point that falls outside the data set's inner fences is classified as a minor outlier, while one that falls outside the outer fences is classified as a major outlier. To find the inner fences for your data set, first, multiply the interquartile range by 1.5. Then, add the result to Q3 and subtract it from Q1.
