To find what's bigger, you must make it common

8/15=32/50
11/20=33/60

11/20 is bigger.

A given line has the equation 2x + 12y = −1. What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is perpendicular to

VikaD [51]

Answer:

y = 6x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- interceot form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 2x + 12y = - 1 into this form

Subtract 2x from both sides

12y = - 2x - 1 ( divide all terms by 12 )

y = - $\frac{1}{6}$ x - $\frac{1}{12}$ ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - $\frac{1}{6}$

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

$m_{perpendicular}$ = - $\frac{1}{m}$ = - $\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{6} }$ = 6

Note the line passes through (0, 9) on the y- axis ⇒ c = 9

y = 6x + 9 ← equation of perpendicular line

Select all the expressions that are equivalent to −5/6 / -1/3

Sindrei [870]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find an expression for $\dfrac{\dfrac{-5}{6}}{\dfrac{-1}{3}}$ .

We can solve it as follows.

We know that,

$\dfrac{\dfrac{a}{b}}{\dfrac{c}{d}}=\dfrac{a}{b}\times \dfrac{d}{c}$

So,

$\dfrac{\dfrac{-5}{6}}{\dfrac{-1}{3}}=\dfrac{-5}{6}\times -3\\\\=\dfrac{5}{2}$

$=2\dfrac{1}{2}$

Hence, this is the required solution.
