Given:
The equation of a line is:

A line passes through the point (-5,-3) and perpendicular to the given line.
To find:
The equation of the line.
Solution:
Slope intercept form of a line is:
...(i)
Where, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
We have,
...(ii)
On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

We know that the product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is always -1.



Slope of the required line is
and it passes through the point (-5,-3). So, the equation of the line is:



Using distributive property, we get




Therefore, the equation of the line is
. Hence, option A is correct.
7 ounces / 6 steaks = 12 ounces per steak
6 steaks / 72 ounces = 1/12 steak per ounce
Answer:
AA Similarity Postulate
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent
step 1
Verify the proportion of the corresponding sides

substitute

----> is true
Corresponding sides are proportional
Triangle PQR is similar to Triangle PST
That means
Corresponding angles must be congruent
side QR is parallel side ST
and
----> by corresponding angles
--> by corresponding angles
so
PQR is similar to PST by AA Similarity Postulate
