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

Mathematics
1 answer:
marissa [1.9K]3 years ago
7 0

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

Write a story about elevation that this expression could represent: 56 + (-56)
Ostrovityanka [42]

The correct statement that represents the expression is:

  • An object moves towards the east (positive direction )at a distance of 56m and west (negative direction) at the same distance, the total displacement of the object is 0m

Given the expression 56 + (-56).

  • We can see that this is an inverse rule where a value and its negative are added together.

Let us assume the values are distance covered by an object.

The correct statement that represents the expression is:

  • An object moves towards the east (positive direction )at a distance of 56m and west (negative direction) at the same distance, the total displacement of the object is 0m

This show that  56 + (-56) = 56 - 56 = 0
