3y=x-3
y=1/3x-1
Perpendicular slope: -3
y=-3x+b
Plug in the coordinates in the equation:
-9=-3(5)+b
-9=-15+b
4=b
Equation: y=-3x+4
Also, when finding the perpendicular slope you take the reciprocal of the original slope and make it negative if it is positive and make it positive if it’s negative.

How many inches are in 15 feet?
15 feet = ? inches
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
If in 12 hours 20 inches falls in 24 hours 40 inches will fall and another 12 hours would be 60 inches. And another 12 hours you will get 2 days so your answer is 80
Answer: 36 whole sausages by the end of the contest.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that he ate 27 sausages in 11 minutes, then the rate at which he ates sausages is:
R = (27 sausages)/(11 minutes) = 2.45 sausage/min
So if he ate at this rate for 15 minutes, the total number of sausages eaten by the end is:
Total number = (2.45 sausage/min)*15min = 36.8 sausages
(where we are counting again the 27 sausages that he ate in the first 11 mins)
If we only count the number of whole sausages eaten, he ate 36 whole sausages.
