Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals to each other, that is, if one slope is a/b, the other is -b/a
in this case, the given slope is 1/3, so the other line's slope is -3/1, which is -3
from the graph we see that the y intercept of line b is -4, so the equation of line b is: y=-3x-4
<span>Brenda would be correct, another way to find the answer would be to use the keep change flip method. Where you keep 5/2 change division to multiplication then flip 4/1.
The equation would then be 5/2 * 4/1 then you just multiply straight across 5*4 = 20 and 2*1 equals 2. You end up with 20/2 which reduces to 10</span>
A hole occurs when both numerator and denominator of a rational function have the same factor.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
While graphing rational function, it has to be converted into the lowest terms by factoring the numerator and denominator. If the numerator and denominator has the same factor, a hole is said to have occurred and to solve the rational function, you have to set the common factor to zero.
After you set it to zero and solve, you obtain the x value which can be then used to find out the value of y.
