The tangent at A is perpendicular to OA, so has a slope that is the negative reciprocal of that of the radius: -1/2.5 = -2/5.
Answer:
y = -x/3 + 6
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
<u>Algebra I</u>
Standard Form: Ax + By = C
Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b
- m - slope
- b - y-intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
Standard Form: x + 3y = 18
<u>Step 2: Rewrite</u>
<em>Find slope-intercept form</em>
- Subtract <em>x</em> on both sides: 3y = -x + 18
- Divide 3 on both sides: y = -x/3 + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
A chef uses 2/3 cup of flour for every 1/8 cup of water in a dough recipe.
It means,
2/3 cup = 1/8 cup of water

Hence, the constant of proportionality is 0.1875.
Answer:
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y/9 = 2/6
y/9 = 1/3 (dividing by 2in both numerator and denominator.)
CROSS MULTIPLYING WE GET
3y = 9*1
3y = 9
y = 3
