Let's convert the equation in point-slope form to slope-intercept form.
y - 4 = -(x - 6)
Multiply everything out.
y - 4 = -x + 6
Add 4 to both sides.
y = -x + 10
To be perpendicular, the slope of the new has to be the reciprocal of the other line. To slope in this equation is -1/1. To get the reciprocal, flip the numerator and denominator and change the sign too.
-1/1 becomes 1/-1, and changes to 1/+1, or 1.
y = x + b
Input the coordinate point and solve for b.
-2 = -2 + b
Add 2 to both sides.
0 = b
y = x
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
How many total fish is Dr. Howser planning on buying?
BOTH tanks hold 120 gallons
Tank A :
3 every 10 --> 120/10 ---> 12
So multiply 3 and 12 ----> 36
36 fishes in tank A
Tank B:
6 every 40 -----> 120/40 ----> 3
So multiply 6 by 3 ----> 18
18 fishes are held in tank B
Add them together:
18 + 36 ----> 54
ANSWER : Dr. Howser is planing on purchesing 54 fish all together.
What will be the ratio of the number of small fish he buys to the number of large fish that he buys
Small ---> 36 fish
Large ---> 18 fish
Small : Large ----> 36:18
ANSWER: 36:18
if you need it siplified it would be 2:1
Answer:
It is an example of a nonlinear function.
