What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line with equation y = 1/6x – 2? help pls very urgent

valina [46]

Solution:

1) Simplify \frac{1}{6}x to \frac{x}{6}
y=\frac{x}{6}-2

2) Add 2 to both sides
y+2=\frac{x}{6}

3) Multiply both sides by 6
(y+2)\times 6=x

4) Regroup terms
6(y+2)=x

5) Switch sides
x=6(y+2)

Done!

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

left, right

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use the < or ≤ symbol to compare the numbers, their left-right order is the same as on the number line. Here, we would write the ordering as ...

-21 < -20 < -19

So, we see that ...

-21 is <em>left</em> of -20 on the number line

-19 is <em>right</em> of -20 on the number line

Sam scored 43, 48, and 42 points on three tests. How many points should he get on the fourth test to get an average score of 50?

$\frac{x+43+48+42}{4}=50$
