Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the original slope

a reciprocal is the inverse of a number, to find the reciprocal, just flip the numerator and denominator

in this cause, the slope is -1/3

the negative of it is 1/3 and the reciprocal is 3

therefore the slope of the perpendicular line is 3

Answer:

The answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 times 3 is 9. 2 times -6 is -12. 9 + -12 is -3.

Can anyone answer this question please<br> 6[y-2]/7-12=2[y-7]/3

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

y =47.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First eliminate the fractions by multiplying through by the LCM of 7 and 3 which is 21:

21* 6[y-2]/7-21*12 = 21*2[y-7]/3

18(y - 2) - 252 = 14(y - 7)

18y -36 - 252 = 14y - 98

18y - 14y = -98 + 36 + 252

4y = 190

y = 190/4

y = 47.5.
