We have an equation: 5/? = 2/6

Cross multiply:
2*? = 5*6
⇒ ?= 5*6/2= 15

There were 15 trumpet players~

Arlene is testing whether school is more enjoyable when students are making high grades. She asked 100 students if they enjoyed

WARRIOR [948]

What is the probability that a student with a GPA below 3.0 does not enjoy school?
Only 15/60 below 3.0 enjoy school.
Rounded, that equals 25%.

Therefore, there is a 75% probability that a student with a GPA below 3.0 does not enjoy school.

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x+6y=-183x+6y=−18. Fully reduce your answer.

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of line is

$3x+6y=-18$

We need to find the slope of a line which is perpendicular to the given line.

The given equation can be rewritten as

$3x+6y+18=0$ ...(i)

If a line is defined as $ax+bx+c=0$ , then the slope of the line is

$m=-\dfrac{a}{b}$

In equation (i), a=3, b=6 and c=18. So, slope of the line is

$m_1=-\dfrac{3}{6}=-\dfrac{1}{2}$

Let $m_2$ be the slope of perpendicular line.

We know that product of two perpendicular line is -1.

$m_1\cdot m_2=-1$

$(-\dfrac{1}{2})\cdot m_2=-1$

Multiply both sides by -2.

$m_2=2$

Therefore, the slope of perpendicular line is 2.
