Answer:

true

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of prependicular lines have to give as a result -1 when multiplied by eachother, so for example if you have a line with a slope of 2, the perpendicular line should have a slope of -1/2 because when multiplying for one another the result will be -1. So the statement would be true, the slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals.

A line intersects the points (-5, 1) and (-2,7). What is the slope of the line in simplest form? m=[?}

IrinaK [193]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find slope : y2- y1 / x2 - x1

we have ( -5 , 1 ) which is ( x1 , y1 )

and ( -2 , 7 ) is ( x2 , y2 )

so; 7 - 1 / -2 - (-5)

6/3

= <u>2</u>

Six times the amount of women that were at the banquet last year will be in attendance this year. The same amount of men will be

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

m+6n

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of men who attended last year=m

Let number of women who attended last year=n

This year, we expect Six times the amount of women attendance last year =6 X n = 6n

The same number of men, m will be expected this year

Therefore, Number of Expected Attendees

= Number of Men + (Six Times the Number of Women)

=m+6n

We can expect (m+6n) people to be in attendance this year.
