Perpendicular slopes are opposite reciprocals.

This means the slope of the line perpendicular to GA will be the opposite reciprocal of -5.

Reciprocal of -5: -1/5

Opposite of -1/5: 1/5

The slope of the line perpendicular to GA is 1/5.

Answer:

2 $\frac{2}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we will turn 5 2/5 into an improper fraction:

5 * 5 = 25 + 2 = 27/5

So they worked for 27/5 days.

We want to divide the days worked by the distance to get the unit rate of distance per day:

$\frac{12}{\frac{27}{5} } = \frac{12}{1} * \frac{5}{27}=\frac{60}{27}=\frac{20}{9}$

So our answer is 2 $\frac{2}{9}$

Hope this helps, have a great day! :D

How to find the rule for the nth term of a geometric sequence with changing common ratio?

ki77a [65]

Hmmm... a geometric sequence MUST have a fixed common ratio. If it is changing, then the sequence you are looking at might not be a geometric sequence at all. We'd need to see an example to be sure.
