First divide each side by 2 isolate y. Now you have y = (-9/2)x - 12. The slope is (-9/2). For a perpendicular line, flip the slope and negate it to get 2/9. Then use y = mx + b.

5 = (2/9)(4) + b
5 = (8/9) + b
(37/9) = b

So the equation is y = (2/9)x + 37/9 or
9y = 2x + 37.

Answer:

150 students.

.20

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do for the first one is you take 1,500 and times it by 90%. You will get 1,350. You will then take the 1350 and minus it from 1500 to get 150 students.

The next one says that he drilled a hole that is 5/9 inches wide. He has a drill bit that is 5/6. Will the drill bit be big enough. No because 5/9 is .556 and 5/6 is .833.

For the next one all they want you to do is look at the fruit percentage and put it into a decimal which is .20.

The next one they want the fraction that represents 30% which is 3/10.

Answer:

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{24} m - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{3}{4} }} \\ \\ { \tt{ \frac{1}{24} m = \frac{17}{12} }} \\ m = 34$
