How do you do a unit rate?
AleksandrR [38]
To find the unit rate, divide the numerator and denominator of the given rate by the denominator of the given rate. So in this case, divide the numerator and denominator of 70/5 by 5, to get 14/1, or 14 students per class, which is the unit rate.

Find the equation of the line passing through the point (–1, 5) and perpendicular to the line y = – 3x + 4.
dsp73

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A)  3y = x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a perpendicular line can be found by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. The constant will be chosen to match the given point.

Swapping coefficients, we get ...

  -3y = x + c

Negating the y-coefficient gives ...

  3y = x + c

Filling in the given point, we have ...

  3(5) = -1 + c

  16 = c

The equation of the perpendicular line can be written as ...

  3y = x + 16 . . . . matches choice A

_____

Note that choice A is the only equation that gives a line with positive slope. The given equation has negative slope, so its perpendicular must have positive slope.
