Answer:

c) y= -3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation

y= 1/3x+6

Here slope m1 = 1/3

We know that the slope of perpendicular lines

m1*m2 = -1

slope of perpendicular line m2 = -1/m1

= -1/ (1/3)

m2 = -3

Also the line passes through (2, -3)

equation of line is given by y = mx+b

y= -3

x= 2

m2 = -3

Applying above values to the equation of line,

-3 = (-3*2)+b

b=3

Hence equation of perpendicular line is y = -3x + 3

A gallon of paint will cover approximately 350 square feet and artist wants to paint all the outside surfaces of a cube measurin

Gelneren [198K]

Assuming that the artist wants to paint 6 sides of the cube, the formula to count the surface area of the cube would be: 6* edge length^2. If the edge length is 10 feet, then the area would be:
area= 6*edge length^2
area= 6* 10^2 feet
area= 6*100feet^2= 600 feet^2

If one gallon of paint can be used for 350 feet^2, the amount of paint needed would be: 600feet^2/ (350ft^2/ gallon)= 1.71 gallon
