The error Vincent made was that he only multiplied the left side of the inequality with 6 although he had to multiply on both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequality that the teacher wrote is:

\frac{x}{6} -2

Solving an inequality means that the variable should be isolated on left side of the inequality.

So multiplying both sides by 6

6* \frac{2}{6} < -2 * 6\\x < -12

Vincent got the answer is x<-2 = > The error Vincent made was that he only multiplied the left side of the inequality with 6 although he had to multiply on both sides

Are the lines y = -x - 6 and 3x - 3y = 9 perpendicular? Explain
irakobra [83]

Answer:

the lines are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

if they are perpendicular the products of their gradients would be -1

the gradient of y=-x-6 is -1

the second equation needs to written to conform to y=mx+c

hence, 3x-3y=9

3x-9=3y

y=3x-9/3=x-3.the gradient of this line is 1

1x-1=  -1
