What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is x-3y=-6x−3y=−6​

Mathematics

marissa [1.9K]3 years ago

Answer:

- 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange x - 3y = - 6 into this form

Subtract x from both sides

- 3y = - x - 6 ( divide all terms by - 3 )

y = \frac{1}{3} x + 2 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{1}{3}

Given the slope m of a line then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

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

mina [271]

Answer:

A. Yes -- Aricka drew the line correctly because the line is decreasing with data points above and below the trend line.

Explanation:

This is what is known as having a line of best fit. The data points should <em>at least</em> <em>nearly</em> be evenly distributed on both sides of the line for it to be a good line of best fit. You should also make sure that you have at least a few points TOUCHING the line. This is a majour part of having a line of best fit.

I am joyous to assist you at any time.

A recipe calls for mixed nuts with 50% peanuts. 1/2 pound of 15% peanuts has already been used. How many pounds of 75% peanuts n
Galina-37 [17]
Now you have
<u />
<u>(.15)0.5 lb peanuts</u>     =     <u>0.075 lb peanuts</u>
0.5 lb  nuts                              0.5 lb nuts

for every pound of 75% mixed nuts you add, you get .75 lb peanuts, how many pounds, x, do you need to add to get the ratio 50 to 100?

<u>0.075 lb peanuts + 0.75x lb peanuts</u><em>       =    <u /></em><u>   50   </u><u>
</u>0.5 lb nuts + x lb nuts                                      100

cross multiply

(0.075 + .75x) 100 = (0.5 + x) 50
7.5 + 75x = 25 + 50x
25x = 17.5
x = 0.7 lb of 75% peanuts
