The input is the x-coordinate and the output is the y-coordinate. If the input is 4, plug 4 into the x variable to find the output, y.
y=3(4)-5
y=12-5
y=7
The output is 7.
Parallel slope = 2
This is because the original line has slope 2. Parallel lines have equal slopes.
--------------------------
Perpendicular slope = -1/2
The original slope 2 or 2/1 turns into -1/2 after flipping the fraction and the sign. Note the original slope and perpendicular slope multiply to -1. This is true for any pair of perpendicular lines where neither line is vertical.
Note this pattern: Mult. 24 by (-1/4) produces -6.
Mult -6 by (-1/4) produces 6/4 = 3/2
Mult. 3/2 by (-1/4) produces 3/8
Looks as though you copied the problem down incorrectly. You wrote 32 for 3/2 and -38 for -3/8.
The common ratio is -1/4.
9°, complementary angles always add up to 90°
First, write out all the values:
40,41,41,45,48,48,49,49,49,50
Then to find the mean, you add all the values and divide by the number of values (there are 10 values)
(40+41+41+45+48+48+49+49+49+50)/10
460/10
=46
Hope this helps
