Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line passing through the points is

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= ( 1-2)/(8-5)

= -1/3

The slope that is perpendicular is the negative reciprocal which is

- ( 1/(-1/3)

+ 3/1

The perpendicular slope is 3

M 4= 111 what is m 5

Hey,
If you meant that $m^{4}= 111$ than $m^{5}$ $= \sqrt[4]{111^{5}}$ but you can't find the exact number.

Hope this helps :) and don't forget to choose the brainliest please :)

Write a whole number and a fraction greater than one to name the part filled.

Examples of this are:
2 and $\frac{6}{3}$

2 and $\frac{12}{6}$

4 and $\frac{8}{2}$

I'm guessing you have a work sheet going along with this which has actual images of containers. I've attached an example - if you can post the actual work sheet you're referring to I can edit this answer to correctly reflect your specific question.
