Answer:no

Step-by-step explanation:put the two numbers in the same denominator

The least common denominator of 8 and 12 is 24. So to get 8 to 24 you multiply it by 3. So 3(3/8) is 9/24.

To get 12 to 24 you multiply it by 2. So 2(7/12) is 14/24. 9/24 is less than 14/24.

So hmmm check the graph below

now.. to find the vertex of any quadratic

$\bf \textit{vertex of a parabola}\\ \quad \\

\begin{array}{lccclll}
h(t)=&-16t^2&+16t&+480\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&a&b&c
\end{array}\qquad 
\left(-\cfrac{{{ b}}}{2{{ a}}}\quad ,\quad {{ c}}-\cfrac{{{ b}}^2}{4{{ a}}}\right)$

so... how long did it take? well, it took $\bf -\cfrac{{{ b}}}{2{{ a}}}$

what was the highest point? well, it was $\bf {{ c}}-\cfrac{{{ b}}^2}{4{{ a}}}$

when did he hit the water? well, at y = 0
that is $h(t) = -16t^2 + 16t + 480 \implies 0 = -16t^2 + 16t + 480,$

solve for "t"

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the equation of the line perpendicular to;

y = -3x + 2

From here, we can compare with the standard form of the equation of a straight line which is;

y = mx + c

From here m = -3

The slope is -3

Now, if two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1

Thus;

-3 * m = -1

m = 1/3

So we want to select an equation out of the options that has a slope of 1/3

Let us take a look at the last option

x -3y = 3

3y = x-3

divide through by 3

y = x/3-1

So here the coefficient of x is 1/3 which is the slope of the perpendicular line that we are looking for and is our slope
