The slope of the parallel line is -6/7
the slope of the perpendicular line is 7/6
the slope of the line = -6/7
the gradient of two parallel lines are equal
the product of the gradient of two perpendicular lines is -1
: the gradient m1*m2 = -1
m2= -1(-6/7)
m2= 7/6
You can do
3 * 2 and 11 * 2 which would be 6:22 and is still equal to the ratio 3:11. Your explanation can be the when divided by 2 or the number you multiplied by, you would get the original ratio
Examples:
6:22
9:33
12:44
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, add x to each side.
72=-2x+84
Subtract 84 from each side
-12=-2x
Dive each side by -2
6=x
