<u>2/3  i</u><u>s the</u><u> slope </u><u>of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x 2y=6.</u>

What is slope?

  • Slope, Numerical measure of a line's inclination relative to the horizontal.
  • In analytic geometry, the slope of any line, ray, or line segment is the ratio of the vertical to the horizontal distance between any two points on it (“slope equals rise over run”).

we can find the slope from the equation that is given buy solving the equation for y

3x+2y = 6

2y = 6-3x

y = 3-3/2x

y = -3/2x+3

now that the equation is in slope-intercept form, we can easily see that the slope of the given line is -3/2

perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals, so we can just take the negative reciprocal of the slope we have

-3/2 → 3/2 → 2/3

Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line is 2/3.

It takes 15 electricians 24 days to wire a new housing subdivision. How many days would 18 electricians take to do the same job,
malfutka [58]
So to set up this equation, you have to do
Time1*Workers1=Time2*Workers2
In this case, Time1=24 days, Workers1=15 electricians, and Workers2=18 electricians, and we have to solve for Time2

Thus we get 15*24=18*Time2
Time2=15*24/18=20 days

Solve for c.<br> a(c+b) = d.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

we assume that a is different from 0 otherwise there is not much we can say on c and then we can write

a(c+b)=d

<=> ac+ab=d

<=> ac = d - ab

<=> c = \dfrac{d-ab}{a} =\dfrac{d}{a}-b

Hope this helps
