Y = -2/3x + 7.....the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All tht means is take the original slope, flip it, and change the sign. So we take -2/3....flip it making it -3/2.....change the sign making it 3/2. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(-5,6)....x = -5 and y = 6
now sub and find b, the y int
6 = 3/2(-5) + b
6 = -15/2 + b
6 + 15/2 = b
12/2 + 15/2 = b
27/2 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x + 27/2 <==

I am part of a whole. I am greater than three fourths but less than nine tenths. I am a decimal with a 3 in its hundredth place.
Natali5045456 [20]
Lets get started :)

Given is that the value is greater than three fourths { \frac{3}{4} = 0.75 }
                      the value is less than nine tenths { \frac{9}{10} = 0.9 }
              and the value has 3 in its hundredth place

Fractions between \frac{3}{4} and \frac{9}{10} are 
\frac{4}{5}=0.8 , \frac{5}{6} = 0.8333 , \frac{7}{8} = 0.875 , \frac{8}{9} = 0.8888

Among these fractions, the value which has 3 in its hundredth place is \frac{5}{6}

\frac{3}{4}\ \textless \ \frac{5}{6} \ \textless \ \frac{9}{10}
