The value of the slope increases and becomes closer to infinity
Hey there!!
Steps to get into equation which is perpendicular:
- The slope of a perpendicular line is always negative reciprocal.
- Take the point and get that into point-slope form.
- y - y = m ( x - x )
- Convert this equation into slope-intercept form.
'm' is the slope.
We have the slope as 1/3
The perpendicular slope would be -3.
Point slope:
The point = (-2,2)
y - 2 = -3( x - (-2) )
y - 2 = -3(x+2)
y - 2 = -3x -6
Adding 2 on both sides:
y = -3x - 4
<em>Hence, the equation would be : </em>
<u><em>y = -3x - 4 </em></u>
Hope it helps!
For every 3 girls, there are 4 boys. if there are nine girls, that expands to three extra boys, because for every three theres an extra one. so there are 12 boys (9+3.) the final ratio, boys to girls, is 12:9.
Answer:
-15/8 or -1 7/8, 1.875
Step-by-step explanation:
You would be able to cut 144 pieces of wire from the spool because 270/1 7/8 (or 1.875) equals 144
