What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equations is x-y=6

Mathematics

belka [17]3 years ago

Answer:

m = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First write the line in slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

x-y = 6

subtract x from each side

-y = -x+6

Multiply each side by -1

y = x-6

The slope is 1

Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

m * 1 = -1

m = -1

The slope of the perpendicular line is -1

Rasek [7]

If Liza takes 120 steps, then the number of steps taken by Pete will be 72.

<h3>What are a ratio and a proportion?</h3>

A ratio is an ordered set of integers a and b expressed as a/b, with b never equaling 0. A percentage is a mathematical expression in which two things are equal.

Pete, Lulu, and Liza are walking in the Boston downtown. Each time Pete takes 4 steps, Lulu takes 3 steps. Each time Lulu takes 5 steps, Liza takes 4 steps.

Then the relation between is given as

4 Pete → 4 Lulu

5 Lulu → 4 Liza

Then we have

\rm \dfrac{5}{3} \times 4 \  Pete  \rightarrow \dfrac{5}{3} \ Lulu \rightarrow 4 \ Liza

If Liza takes 120 steps, then the number of the step taken by Pete will be

\rm \dfrac{5}{3} \times 4 \  Pete  \rightarrow 4 \times 120 \\\\Pete  \rightarrow 72

More about the ratio and the proportion link is given below.
