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}

I NEED HELP PLEASE I
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

10x+40

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve you must follow these steps:

1. Multiply the outside (5) by the first number on the inside (2x) and you get 10x

2. Multiply the outside (5) by the second number on the inside of the parenthesis (8) and you get 40

3. You are left with 10x and 40, so your answer is 10x+40

Hope this makes sense, have a wonderful day!

How do i do part a) and b)?
Anarel [89]
6,12,24,48,96... when we multiply by 2
-6,12,-24,48,-96.... when we multiply by -2
a)   q can be 24 or -24
b)p/r=6/96 =-6/-96= 2/32=1/16
c)  a(n)=6*2^(n-1)
386=6*2^(n-1),   386/6=2^(n-1), 64,333(3)=2^(n-1), 
we will not be able to find whole number n for number 386, so 386 is not a term in this sequence, because it does not follow the rule of this sequence
