Perpendicular means that the slopes are negartive inverses, aka
slope1 times slope2=-1
y=mx+b
slope=m
y=-1/2x-2
slope=-1/2
we need to find negative inverse
-1/2 times what=-1
answer is 2
y=2x+b
input the point (2,-2) to find b
(x,y)
(2,-2)
-2=2(2)+b
-2=4+b
minus 4 from both sides
-6=b
y=2x-6
the equtaion is y=2x-6
Kx=y-m
x=(y-m)/k
Note that this is also standard linear form, x=y/k-m/k where slope=1/k and x intercept is -m/k.
I think it’s 500 volunteers
Minus 3 from the 3 and the 18
A coefficient is a number that is attached to a term.
For example:
3x² - 5x + 6 = 0
The coefficient of x² is 3.
The coefficient of x = -5.
Hope this explains it.
