Use slopes to determine if the lines 6x + 9y = 2 and 9x + 6y = -3 are perpendicular.

Answer:

Explanation:

Make the equation into slope-int form:
6x + 9y = 2
9y = -6x + 2
y = (-6/9)x + 2/9
y = (-2/3)x + 2/9

9x + 6y = -3
6y = -9x - 3
y = (-9/6)x - 3/6
y = (-3/2)x - 1/2

In order for a line to perpendicular the slope needs to be an opposite reciprocal of the other. If our first slope is -2/3 then the opposite reciprocal should be 3/2 but, we found out that our second slope is -3/2 not 3/2 therefore, it will not perpendicular.

Write a rule to describe the function shown.
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

y = -3x  

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Slope

y = mx + b

Choose points (-3, 9) and (3, -9)

m = (-9 - 9)/(3 – (-3))

m = -18/(3 + 3)

m = -18/6

m = -3

=====

(b) y-intercept

y = mx +b

Choose point (0,0).

0 = 0 + b

b = 0

=====

(c) Equation of line

y = mx + b

y = -3x

Steps to solve this-- Find the percent of increase from 380 to 440. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent if necessary. 13.6%
OLga [1]
If 380 would be 100%

Then use rule of 3

380 ______ 100%

440 ______ y

380y = 440×100%

380y = 440 × 1

Dividing both the sides by 380

y = 440/380

y = 1,158

Let's multiplity "y" by 100

y = 115,8%

As we did have 100% initially

Then the increase will be

The increase = 115,8% -100%

= 15,8%

This would your answer
