Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the point (-2,1) and is perpendicular to the equation

3x 18y=4

Let's convert the equation into slope-intercept form.

3x + 18y = 4
Subtract 3x from both sides.
18y= -3x + 4
Divide both sides by 18.
y = -3/18x + 4/18
Simplify.
y = -1/6x + 2/9

To make a line perpendicular, we need the slope to be the reciprocal of the other. Flip the denominator and numerator, and change the sign. We also have to change the b to make the line go through (-2, 1)

-1/6 to +6/1, or 6.

y = 6x + b

Input the x and y values and solve for b.

1 = 6(-2) + b
1 = -12 + b
Add 12 to both sides.
13 = b

y = 6x + 13

Which is the equation for the line perpendicular to y = –5/3 x + 11 1/3 and containing P(–2, 3)?
kati45 [8]
Okay, to answer this question, 
<span>Perpendicular lines have slopes that are inverse of one another and with opposite signs so, 
If a line has a slope of m= -2 than a perpendicular line will have slope m=1/2
If a line has a slope of m= -3/4 than a perpendicular line will have slope m=4/3 If a line has a slope of m= 6 than a perpendicular line will have slope m=-1/6

So, just find the slope of your line, using it, get the slope of the line that will be perpendicular and then just get the equation for a line that has that slope and passes through point (-2,3) using: y - y1 = m(x - x1)
I hope I helped you with my answer</span>

a town has a population of 16000 and grows at 2% every year. to the nearest tenth of a year, how long will it be until the popu
miss Akunina [59]
20100 = 16000 * (1.02)^ t

20100/16000 = 1.02^t

1.25625 = 1.02^t

log 1.25625 = t * log 1.02

t = log 1.25625 / log 1.02
= 11.5

A jeweler is dividing
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer: OPTION D:  \frac{3}{32}

Step-by-step explanation:

By definiton, fractions have the following form:

\frac{a}{b}

Where "a" is called numerator and "b" is the denominator. The numerator and the denominator are Integers.

 In order to solve this exercise you need to remember de Division of fractions:

\frac{a}{b}\div\frac{d}{e}=\frac{a}{b}*\frac{e}{d}=\frac{a*e}{b*d}

In this case, according to the information given in the exercise, you know that \frac{3}{8}\ lb of rubies are divided into 4 lots.

Therefore, in order to calculate the weight in pounds of each lot, you need to divide \frac{3}{8}\ lb  by 4.

Then, you get the following result:

\frac{3}{8}\ lb\div4=(\frac{3}{8}\ lb) (\frac{1}{4})=\frac{3}{8*4}\ lb=\frac{3}{32} \ lb

As you can notice, this result matches with the Option D.
