Answer:
y = -(2/3)x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of each other. That means you take the slope, flip the fraction, and change the sign.
Here our given line is y = (3/2)x - 6 so the slope 5/9
The opposite reciprocal of 3/2 is -2/3
We set up the equation
y = -(2/3)x + b
we are given a point (x, y) of (9, -4), so plug that in and solve for b
-4 = -(2/3)(9) + b
-4 = -6 + b
2 = b
So our equation is y = -(2/3)x + 2
To find the difference, we need to subtract the height of the fish from the height of the bird. If we use sea level as 0, then the bird flies at 1,281 feet, and the fish swims at -282 feet.
1,281 - (-282) = <span>1,281 + 282 = 1,563 feet
There is a </span><span>1,563 feet difference between the height of the bird and the depth of the fish</span>
Answer: 1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
26+6+10=42
6/42=1/7
I think it C (I don't really remember but I learned it before)
