<span>-2y=3x+7
    y = -3/2 x - 7/2

y = mx + b where m = slope
so in the equation
</span>y = -3/2 x - 7/2
m = slope = -3/2

perpendicular lines, slope is opposite and reciprocal so slope = 2/3

answer 2/3

hope it helps

What’s the slope of the line that passes through 5,10 and 7,12
Marrrta [24]

Slope of the line passes through (5,10) and (7,12) is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The two points are (5,10) and (7,12).

To find the slope passing through the given points.

Formula

The slope of the line passing through (x_{1} ,y_{1}) and (x_{2} ,y_{2}) is \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }

Now, putting x_{1} =5,y_{1}=10, x_{2}=7, y_{2} =12 we get,

Slope = \frac{12-10}{7-5} = \frac{2}{2} = 1

Hence,

Slope of the line passes through (5,10) and (7,12) is 1.

Mr peterson will buy 80 feet of fencing. The pieces of fence come in whole numbers of feet. His enclosure will be a rectangle an
DIA [1.3K]
The perimeter is:
 P = 2x + 2y = 80
 The area is:
 A = x * y
 The area as a function of a variable is:
 A (x) = x * (40-x)
 Rewriting we have:
 A (x) = 40x-x ^ 2
 We derive the function:
 A '(x) = 40-2x
 We equal zero and clear x:
 40-2x = 0
 2x = 40
 x = 40/2
 x = 20 feet
 The other dimension is:
 y = 40 - x
 y = 40 - 20
 y = 20 feet
 The area will be:
 A = x * y
 A = 20 * 20
 A = 400 feet ^ 2
 Answer:
 
The dimensions are:
 
x = 20 feet
 
y = 20 feet
 
The area is:
 
A = 400 feet ^ 2

Serjik [45]

Step-by-step explanation: A coordinate grid has two perpendicular lines, or axes (pronounced AX-eez), labeled just like number lines. The horizontal axis is usually called the x-axis. The vertical axis is usually called the y-axis. The point where the x- and y-axis intersect is called the origin
