Answer:

The equation of the new line is y=x+9  or  y-6=(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find out the slope of the line with x-intercept (3,0) and y intercept (0,3)

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute the values

m=\frac{3-0}{0-3}=-1

step 2

Find the slope of the new line perpendicular to the given line

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular,then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

m_1*m_2=-1

we have

m_1=-1 ----> slope of the given line

so

m_2=1 ---> slope of the new line

step 3

Find the equation of the new line in point slope form

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

we have

m=1

(x_1,y_1)=(-3,6)

substitute

y-6=(1)(x+3)

y-6=(x+3) ----> equation in point slope form

Convert to slope intercept form

y=mx+b

isolate the variable y

y=x+3+6

y=x+9

Please help me with math please, they are number lines

So u have to rearrange to find x again
You look at the equation and u can see that if u take away 14 from both sides it will leave u with:
X/-3<-2
Now as x is over - 3, the opposite of divide is multiply, so you multiply both sides by - 3.
This leaves you with your answer:
x<6

So the number line which represents this is C.

The length of a rectangle is 5 inches longer than the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 inches. What is the width of t
tangare [24]

Answer: 7.5"

Step-by-step explanation:

First, take away the extra 5" on the longer side lengths

40-5-5=30

Then divide by 4 to get the width

30/4=7.5

This works because if you took the 7.5" and added back the 5 inches, it makes 12.5. Then add all 4 sides together, you get 40.

7.5+7.5+12.5+12.5=
