Lines m and p are perpendicular. if the slope of line m is -3 what is the slope of line p?

Mathematics

Nina [5.8K]3 years ago

Answer:

The slope of line p is 1/3. The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the slope of line p be m.

The product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1 and the slope of two  parallel lines are same.

m_1\times m_2=-1

It is given that lines m and p are perpendicular. It means the product of slopes of m and p is -1. The slope of line m is -3.

-3\times m=-1

Divide both sides by -3.

m=\frac{-1}{-3}

m=\frac{1}{3}

Therefore the slope of line p is 1/3. The correct option is B.

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals

so if m1 = -3

the perpendicular line has a slope of 1/3

: Santiago realizó los siguientes movimientos en su Cuenta bancaria: el lunes consignó $300.000, el martes retiró $120.000, el m
butalik [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Los movimientos bancarios de Santiago se representan matemáticamente teniendo en cuenta que consignar es sumar y retirar el restar. Por lo tanto podes expresar los movimientos bancarios de la siguiente manera:

  • Lunes → + 300.000
  • Martes → -120.000
  • Miércoles → -95.000
  • Jueves → +80.000

Al realizar la sumatoria se obtiene:

 +300.000 - 120.000 - 95.000 + 80.000 = + 165.000

En la semana Santiago obtiene en su cuenta bancaria $165.000

There were 935 offenses in 2000 and 2448 offenses in 2019. What is the percentage increase?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Approximately 262%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage increase divide the new amount of offenses by the old amount of offenses:

2448/935 = 2.618

2.618 rounds to 2.62. Convert 2.62 into a percentage: 262%

The percentage increase between the amount of offenses in 2000 and the amount of offenses in 2019 is approximately 262%.

garri49 [273]

Answer:

AB=15  BD=18

Step-by-step explanation:

AB is 15 because AB=AC and AC is 15

BD:

Using the Pythagorean Theorem

10²+15²=√325

√325=18

10 is from AB-CD

15 is the height which is AC

Answer:

  f(x) = {-x for x < 2; 2x-3 for x ≥ 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The blue line extending to the left has a slope of -1 and a y-intercept of 0. Its equation is y = -x. That part of the definition of f(x) is applicable for values of x less than 2. (The open dot at (2, -2) tells you that point is not included.)

The red line extending to the right has a slope = rise/run = 2/1 = 2. The y-intercept can be found by extending the line to the y-axis, or from the computation ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 1 -2(2) = -3 . . . . . for the point (x, y) = (2, 1)

Then the slope-intercept equation for the red line is ...

  y = 2x -3

That part of the definition of f(x) is applicable for values of x ≥ 2. The solid dot tells you the point (2, 1) is included.

Putting these parts together, we get ...

  f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}-x&\text{if $x
