You have a line:
y=mx+b  (slope-intercepted form)
m=slope of this line.

The slope of a line perpendicular to that given line will be: ´"m´"
m´=-1/m.

For example:
y=8x+3
m=8

The solpe fo a line perpendicular to "y=8x+3" is:
m`=-1/8

What does it mean by "write the multiples of 5 starting from 75" ??
barxatty [35]
When u think of multiples...think of multiplication tables...
5 x 1 = 5
5 x 2 = 10
5 x 3 = 15
and so on.....so ur multiples of 5 are 5,10,15..and so on

so multiples of 5 starting at 75 would be.....75,80,85,90,95,100...and so on....not sure how far ur supposed to count to...

Point A is the midpoint of CT which means the ratio of CA:CT would be 1:2.
To find CT, you need to find the distance of CA then applies 2 times of the distance to the point C

Xca= Xa-Xc= 1- (-2)= 3
Yca= Ya- Yc= -3 -5= -8

Xt= Xc + 2* Xca= -2 + 2*3= 4
Yt= Yc + 2* Yca= 5 + 2*-8= -11
T(Xt, Yt)= T(4, -11)

The coordinate for point T would be (4, -11)
