1/2 divided by 1/6: keep, change, change
1/2 times 6/1 equals 6/2 which is simplified to 3.

3/2 divided by 1/8: keep, change, change
3/2 times 8/1 equals 24/2 which is simplified to 12

hope this answered your question! :)

When you are dividing fractions you just flip the second fraction upside down and multiply the two fractions
So the first is
½ x 6/1 = 6/2 = 3

For the second you write them as improper fractions then do the same
So it is
3/2 / 1/8 = 3/2 x 8/1 = 24/2 = 12

So the answer to the first question is 3 and the second is 12

Answer:

y=0.5x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

if it is perpendicular to the line y=-2x-6, then you know that its slope is the negative reciprocal of that line, and it has a different y intercept which you need to solve for using the point given. You solve by plugging in the x and y values from the point and plugging in the slope into the standard equation, and solving for b, the y intercept

y=0.5x+b

1=0.5(6)+b

1=3+b
