First we need to find the slope of line k.  Using the slope formula, we fill in accordingly: m= \frac{4-1}{1-3}.  The slope is -3/2.  The slope of a line that is perpendicular to line k will have the opposite sign (so, positive) and will be the reciprocal of the line k's slope (so, 2/3).  You could also say, more "mathematically legal", that the product of the slopes of perpendicular lines is -1, but it's easier to just say that they are opposite reciprocals.  The slope you're looking for is 2/3.  Choice 3 above.

Y_Kistochka [10]
Isabella drove 600m.
Mia drove 300 more than Isabella=(600+300)m
=900m.
David drove=8.5km=8500m
Therefore, Distance David drove in meters combined of both distances of Mia and Isabella =[8500-(600+900)]m
=(8500-1500)
=7000 meters or 7 km.

F the point T is between the points B and N, then which of the following is true?
valentina_108 [34]
Assuming T, B and N are all on the same line, then we can say

BT + TN = BN

which is the segment addition postulate. 

Subtract TN from both sides to get
BT + TN = BN
BT + TN - TN = BN - TN
BT = BN - TN
BN - TN = BT

Which is what choice C is saying. Therefore the answer is choice C.
