What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (3,-1) and is perpendicular to the equation y=-3x+2

1 answer:

8 0

If it is perpendicular then the slope of it will be:

$-3 \times x = -1\\\\x = \frac{1}{3}$

y = 1/3 x + b

-1 = (1/3)(3) + b

-1 = 1 + b

b = -2

The equation is:

$y = \frac{1}{3}x - 2$

Rick is on a bicycle trip. Every 444 days he bikes 230 \text{ km}230 km230, space, k, m.If Rick keeps this same pace for 161616

Katarina [22]

For this problem, we use the approach of ratio and proportion. Assuming that the given ratio of 444 days per 230 km is constant all throughout, we can determine the number of days or distance as long as one of the two is given. In this case, the solution is as follows:

444 days/230 km = 161616 days/distance
Distance = 83,720 km
