Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = 1/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we must first solve the original equation for y.

3x + y = 6

y = -3x + 6

This means the original slope is -3. Since the original slope is -3, we know that the perpendicular slope is 1/3. This is because perpendicular slopes are opposite and reciprocal.

Now we use the slope and the intercept in slope-intercept form to get the equation.

y = mx + b

y = 1/3x + 2

What is the distance between (10, 6) and (-2, -3)
Helga [31]

Answer:

15 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is

√(x1-y1)^2 + (y1-y2)^2))

So here it is:

√(10- -2)^2 + (6- -3)^2)

= √(144+81)

=  √225

= 15.
