slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line y=-3x is 1/3

What is slope of line?

A line's slope in mathematics is defined as the ratio of the change in the y coordinate to the change in the x coordinate. Both the net change in the y-coordinate and the net change in the x-coordinate are denoted by y and x, respectively. where "m" represents a line's slope. So, the slope of a line is tanθ.

y=-3x

tanθ=slope = y/x= -3

Slope(M) of this equation is -3

Let the slope of its perpendicular line is m

As we know that the product of the slopes of perpendicular lines is -1

so,

M*m =-1

-3 * m= -1

m=1/3

Let x be the original position.

After the first play they gain 9 yards. The position can be represented by
x + 9

After the second play they lose 22 yards. The position can be represented by
x + 9 - 22 = x - 13

Therefore, in total they lost 13 yards.

Answer:

X₁=7 ,X₂ = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a= 1²  b= - 12   c= 35

X =[ ( -b±√b²-4ac ) / 2a]

So, use this formula and get the answer...

   Even if you use the middle term formula, you will get the same answer

I don't know how to answer this question.
laiz [17]

Answer:

- 39/8y

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find a common denominator:

There is already a y in both denominators, so you don't have to worry about that. Since only one denominator has an 8, the other needs to have an 8, so you need to multiply the first fraction by 8 → - 4/y * 8 = - 32/8y

From here you can subtract the numerators:

- 32/8y +(- 7/8y) = - 39/8y

Because you are adding a negative to a negative, it makes the number mroe negative


I hope this helps!
