Answer:
Whitney made 6 baskets
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of baskets made by Whitney be x.
The 15 baskets made by
Chiyann is equal to 2 times plus 3 what Whitney made
Mathematically what she made would be 2x + 3
To get x, we equate this equation to 15
2x + 3 = 15
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6 baskets
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.
It all depends on the fraction.
1/2=.5 because half of 1 is .5 and half can be represented as 2
