To solve this, you’ll first need to solve for their slopes.

The slope for line Q is y2-y1/x2-x1 = -8-(-2)/-8-(-10) = -3

We know that the lines are perpendicular so the negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3

The equation you get it y = 1/3x + b.

Now you will need to solve for b by substituting in the first ordered pair of line R.

2 = 1/3(1) + b.

Once you solve for b, you should get 5/3 and y = 1/3x + 5/3

Now, to find a, you will need to substitute in 10 from the second ordered pair into x in your new equation.

y = 1/3(10) + 5/3.

Your solution should be 5.

So your answer is: a = 5

Trina's car uses 12 gallons of gas to travel 144 miles. If she has 6 gallons of gas in the tank, how much more gas will she need
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: 14gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

12gallons/144miles = 1gallon/12miles

Therefore 6gallons = 12*6 = 72miles.

In order to cover 240miles, she will need 240/12 = 20gallons.

20-6 = 14gallons

She will need 14gallons of gas more.

Answer: She is correct because each ratio is equivalent to 5:1, except for the last one, which is 1:5

5/1 = 5:1

10/2 = 5:1

25/5 = 5:1

10/50 = 1:5
