Step-by-step explanation:
step 1. perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes
step 2. perpendicular to m = 1/3 is the slope m = -3/1 or m = -3
step 3. a line through (3, 2) with m = -3 is y - 2 = -3(x - 3)
step 4. y - 2 = -3x + 9
step 5. y = -3x + 11.
The coordinates to the second spot can be represented by the coordinates
(-12 + 3, 8 -11)
Since we are going 3 yards to the east we would be affecting the x-axis and since we are going east we will need to add 3 yards the x axis of the first spot
11 yards south would be affecting the y- axis negatively. We would need to subtract 11 from the y- axis of the first spot.
the coordinates of the second spot would be
-12 +3 = -9
8 -11 = -3
(-9, -3)
Change the sign of the y component.
(6,-14)
C is 6 because the absolute value of -19 -13 would be 19-13 which equals 6
