For perpendicular lines, m1m2 = -1 or m2 = -1/m1; where m1 and m2 are the slopes of the lines.
Here line 1 is 3x - 7y = 42
7y = 3x - 42
y = 3/7 x - 6; Hence m1 = 3/7
m2 = -1/(3/7) = -7/3
Required equation y - y1 = m2(x - x1)
y - (-8) = -7/3(x - (-3))
y + 8 = -7/3(x + 3)
y + 8 = -7/3 x - 7
y = -7/3 x - 7 - 8
y = -7/3 x - 15

How much is three half’s plus one fifth
Maslowich

Let's make it an expression.

Three half's= 3/2 Plus= + one fifth= 1/5

We need to turn 3/2 and 1/5 so that they have the same denominator. Let's use 10.

3/2→15/10 1/5→2/10

15/10+2/10=17/10=1 7/10

So, three half's plus one fifth is 1 7/10.

T(x, y) = (x - 5, y - 6) since you are trying to translate back to the original point and therefor should do the reverse set of translations

Nikolay [14]
She asked her friends, which does not represent a random sample.

She tried to show cause and effect without doing an experiment (which includes simple random sample, control group, treatment, etc).

So the answer is she did not use a random sample, and tried to show cause and effect with an observational study.
