You will be using the equation y = mx + b

The only variables you need to find are "m" and "b"

For the equation of a line to be perpendicular to the given line, the slope will have to be the opposite of the given slope. Or you have to flip the sign and the number of the given slope to get your new slope.

For example:

m = -2

perpendicular slope = 1/2(positive)

m = 3/4

perpendicular slope = -4/3(negative)


The slope of the line is -1.5 or -3/2

Your new slope is 2/3

y = 2/3x + b

To find "b", you plug in the point (2,0) into the equation.

0 = 2/3(2) + b

0 = 4/3 + b

-4/3 = b


Your new equation is y = 2/3x - 4/3

9) > cause 1 fl oz is .125 of a cup and multiply that by 96 which is 12 cups which is less than 13 cups
10)> cause 1 lb is 16 oz, multiply 16 by 25 which is 400, which is greater than 384 cups
11) = cause 1 yd is 36 in, so you would multiply 36 in by 8, which is 288 inches, which is the same

[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is a leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is the hypotenuse<u> </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Identify</u>

Leg a = 24

Leg b = 7 in

Leg c = <em>x</em>

<em />

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Substitute in variables [Pythagorean Theorem]:                                          24² + 7² = x²
  2. Evaluate exponents:                                                                                      576 + 49 = x²
  3. Add:                                                                                                                 625 = x²
  4. [Equality Property] Square root both sides:                                                 25 = x

Justify why a / b x b / c x c /d x d / e is equal to a /e when B C D and E are not zero
Maru [420]

a/b * b/c * c/d * d/e is equal to a/e provided that b, c, d, and e are not zero

 

PROVE

 a/b * b/c * c/d * d/e

= (a/b *b/c) * (c/d * d/e)

= ab/bc * (c/d * d/e)

= a/c * (c/d * d/e)

= a/c * (cd/de)

= a/c * c/e

= ac/ce

= a/e

 

Therefore, a/b * b/c * c/d * d/e is equal to a/e provided that b, c, d, and e are not zero
