Y - 4 = 5/2(x + 3)....slope here is 5/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -2/5 (see how I flipped the slope and changed the sign)

I am not sure what form u need this in...so I will write a few...

point-slope form :
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -2/5
(-3,4)....x1 = -3 and y1 = 4
now we sub
y - 4 = -2/5(x - (-3) =
y - 4 = -2/5(x + 3) <== point slope form

y - 4 = -2/5(x + 3)
y = -2/5x - 6/5 + 4
y = -2/5x - 6/5 + 20/5
y = -2/5x + 14/5 <== slope intercept form

y = -2/5x + 14/5
2/5x + y = 14/5...multiply by 5
2x + 5y = 14 <== standard form

35% of the students at charles drew middle school are 6th graders if there are 84 sixth graders what is the total number of stud
Juliette [100K]

Answer: The total number of student in the school  = 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total number of students in the school.

Given: 35% of the students at Charles drew middle school are 6th graders.

i.e. Number of sixth graders = 35% of x = 0.35x   [35% = 0.35]

Since there are 84 sixth graders in the school,

So  0.35x=84

Divide both sides by 0.35, we get

x=\dfrac{84}{0.35}=\dfrac{84\times100}{35}=240

Hence, the total number of student in the school  = 240.
