To fill 1/5 meters it takes:
3/5 divided by 4 1/2
=3/5 divided by 9/2
=3/5 x 2/9
=2/15

To fill 5/5 or 1 meter it takes:
2/15 x 5
=10/15
=2/3
Therefore, it takes 2/3 minutes to fill an empty aquarium to a depth of 5/5 or 1 meter.

Write an equation of a line in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to the line 2x -3y = 12 and passes through the point (
Scilla [17]

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = -3/2x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, start by finding the slope of the original line. You can do this by solving for y.

2x - 3y = 12

-3y = -2x + 12

y = 2/3x - 4

Now that we have a slope of 2/3, we know that the perpendicular slope is -3/2 (since perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes). We can use this and the new point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 6 = -3/2(x - 2)

y - 6 = -3/2x + 3

y = -3/2x + 9
