We know that a line is perpendicular to another line if one slope is the opposite reciprocal  of the other. So, the slope of the line perpendicular to y=1/2x-3 would by -2/1 or -2. Now, to find the y intercept, plug in the coordinate (1, -1) to the equation y = -2x + b. 

-1 = -2(1) + b
 
-1 = -2 + b

1 = b

Now we know the y intercept and slope of the new line, which is enough to make the equation. y = -2x + 1 is your answer. 

Hope this helps!! :)

Y = 1/2x - 3. Slope here is 1/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip the slope and change the sign. So the perpendicular line will have a slope of -2.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(1,-1)...x = 1 and y = -1
now we sub and find b, the y int
-1 = -2(1) + b
-1 = -2 + b
-1 + 2 = b
1 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -2x + 1

a chef uses 4 3/4 cups of broth for 10 servings of soup. How much broth is used in one serving of soup?
mafiozo [28]
Set up a proportion. 4 3/4 cup broth is to 10 servings as x cups broth is to 1 serving soup.

x= amount of broth in one serving

(4 3/4)/10= x/1
cross multiply

(4 3/4)(1)= 10x
convert 4 3/4 to improper fraction

(19/4)(1)= 10x

19/4= 10x
divide both sides by 10

19/4 ÷ 10= x
to divide fractions, multiply by reciprocal of 10

19/4 * 1/10= x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators

(19*1)/(4*10)= x

19/40 cup= x


ANSWER: 19/40 cup in one serving

Hope this helps! :)

If you don’t know the answer don’t answer it pls help me out if you do tho!

Answer: x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello again XD.

This is a coordinate plane and all the angles on a coordinate plane add up to 360°

Divide 360 by 4 to get the measurement of the section we are working in.

360/4 = 90°

This means it is complementary and complementary angles state that both separate angles added together = 90°

therefore,

6x + 2 + 40 = 90

combine like terms:

6x + 42 = 90

now subtract 42 from both sides

6x = 48

divide 6 from both sides to get:

x = 8

Let me know if you have any more questions you want answered and I hope I explained this well.
