Answer:
2 2/3 cubic feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Martha will put 1/3 of the 8 cubic feet in each pot. That is ...
(1/3)(8 ft³) = 8/3 ft³ = 2 2/3 ft³
Martha will put 2 2/3 cubic feet of soil in each pot.
For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:
m1*m2=-1
So we first need to find the slope of the reference line.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(7-2)/(-1--5)=5/4
So the perpendicular line will have a slope of:
5m/4=-1
m=-4/5
So our perpendicular line so far is:
y=-4x/5+b, now we can use point (3,-1) to solve for the y-intercept, "b"
-1=-4(3)/5+b
-1=-12/5+b
-5/5+12/5=b
7/5=b
So the line is:
y=-4x/5+7/5 or more neatly
y=(-4x+7)/5
y=-0.8x+1.4
Well first turn 1/7 and 1/5 into decimals which would be .142857 and .2 Add those to 7 and 5 to get 7.143 (I rounded this to the nearest thousandth) and 5.2 Divide those and you get 1.374
