We are starting with y = 3x -5 which is the slope intercept form (y = mx +b) of a linear equation where the slope is m and the y intercept is b.  In this equation the slope m = 3 A perpendicular line would have a slope that is the negative reciprocal so the slope of the perpendicular line would be m = -1/3 So we have a slope m = -1/3   and a point (3,2)  so use the point slope formula (Y-Y1) = m(X-X1)In this case (X1,Y1) = (3,2) (Y - 2) = (-1/3)(X-3) Y-2 = (-1/3)X + 1 Y = (-1/3)X + 3 would be the equation of the perpendicular line through (3,2)

Y = -3x + 5...slope here is -3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All thet means is flip the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of 1/3....see how I flipped -3, or  -3/1, and made it -1/3...and then switched the sign, making it 1/3)

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1/3
(-3,-5)...x = -3 and y = -5
sub and find b, the y int
-5 = 1/3(-3) + b
-5 = -1 + b
-5 + 1 = b
-4 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 1/3x - 4

Arrange these numbers in increasing order: 216,000,000, 2.2 × 10 to the 3rd power, 3.1 × 10 to the 7th power, 310,000
ziro4ka [17]
<span>216,000,000
</span><span>2.2 × 10 to the 3rd power = 2.2 * 10^3 = 2,200
</span>3.1 × 10 to the 7th power = 3.1 * 10^7 = 31,000,000
<span>310,000

Increasing order:
</span>2,200 , 310,000 , 216,000,000 , 31,000,000

So increasing order with original numbers:
2.2 × 10 to the 3rd power, 310,000, <span>216,000,000,  3.1 × 10 to the 7th power</span>

Answer:

Hi there

Adjacent angles are two angles that have a common side and a common vertex (corner point), and don't overlap. Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines cross

A book club has 200 members
nikklg [1K]
So these are decmials of the accutal total so

.32=32%
what makes this question easy is that there are 200 members so to convert the percents into accutall numbers so like .32=32%=64 people (since 200 is 2 times of 100)

A. fiction of 31-40 compared to 21-30
fiction 31-40=.38=38%=76 readers
fiction 21-30=.32=32%=64 readers
76-64=12
A is FALSE

B. so we want to know how many people are 31-40 and prefer fiction
so .38=38% and 38% of 200=76
B is FALSE

C 43 members are 21-30
so we look at the total row for the 21-30 people and see that .43 or 43% or 86 people are in the 21-30 age group
C is FALSE

D. 140 members prefer fiction
look at the total column for fiction and see that .70 like fiction .70=70%=140 people
D is TRUE

so A,B,C are FALSE
D is TRUE
