I think the number would be 1.
Answer:
y +5 = -1/3(x -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the given line is 3. The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of that, -1/3. Then the point-slope equation is ...
y -y1 = m(x -x1) . . . . line with slope m through point (x1, y1)
y -(-5) = -1/3(x -3)
y +5 = -1/3(x -3)
The mid-point is basically the average of the coordinates. So for the x coordinate do (1+(-7))/2=-3. and for y, do (-10+7)/2=-3/2
This gives you the midpoint as (-3,-3/2)
D.) 9,987,000 becomes 9.987 x 10^6
Step 1) You would need to convert your 2 fractions into equivalent numbers. In this case, the closet gcf (greatest common factor) is 12. So, 5/4 would convert to 15/12 and 2/3 converts to 8/12.
Step 2) You know have your decimals that are equivalent. All you have left now is to subtract. Take 15/12 and subtract 8/12 from it. You would now get 7/12 of a mile that is still needed to run.
Step 3) Usually, you would simplify your new fraction. In this case, our fraction doesn't simplify. It will stay 7/12 of a mile. For example, If our number had ended up being 4/12, then we would simplify it to 1/3 of a mile. Because, 4 divided by 4 is 1 and 12 divided by 4 is 3. You can't simplify your answer anymore.
Hope this helped!
