Answer:Decreasing
Step-by-step explanation:
Focus only on the 8-10 interval for x. Note that for x=8 , y=1, for x=9, y=0 and for x=10, y=-1. Y is obviously decreasing for .
Answer:
m =
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Finding the slope of the given line </h3>We need to find the slope of this equation to find the slope of a line perpendicular to it. This means we must solve for y.
Start off by subtracting 8x from both sides of the equation to start isolating the variable y.
Now solve for y by dividing both sides of the equation by -7.
This can be broken into two parts by distributing the negative sign from the -7 into the 9 and -8x like so:
The slope of a line is the coefficient of x, so in this case the slope of the given line () is
.
Two lines that are perpendicular would have opposite reciprocal slopes, which means the perpendicular slope would be the negative counterpart and would be flipped.
For example, if you have 2 as the slope of one of the perpendicular lines, the other line would be the opposite (-2) reciprocal ().
Therefore, since we have the slope of one of the perpendicular lines (the given line), we would find the opposite reciprocal of it's slope to solve this problem.
