The slope of the given line is -1/3. The perpendicular line's slope is the opposite reciprocal of the given line's slope. So, the perpendicular line's slope is 3. Then we have slope intercept form y=mx+b
y=3x+b
We don't know "b" which is the y-intercept for this equation, but we have the coordinates (6, -1). We can use these to find the slope by plugging them into the equation.
-1=3(6)+b
-1=18+b
-1-18=18+b-18
-19=b
So, the resulting y-intercept is -19.
The final perpendicular equation would be y=3x-19
You get the answer x+5/x+3.
This is because all of the fractions have the same denominator, so just add the numerators and put them over x+3.
Answer:
36 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the rectangles as ratios.
First= 10:12
Second= 30:x
You can see that the second is 3 times as large as the first. Therefore, the second height must be 12*3. 12*3=36
