Answer:

y - 2 = (-1/3)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.  Thus, a line perpendicular to the given y = 3x - 8 has slope -1/3.

The desired equation is thus y - k = m(x - h), or, specifically,

y - 2 = (-1/3)(x - 2)

How many odd positive integers less than 300 can be written using the numbers 2,4,5,and 8
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

4!

Step-by-step explanation:

Given four numbers 2, 4, 6, 8.

The numbers can be arranged to form an odd number which is less than 300.

That means we have three spaces to fill this. We can try out the different combination of the numbers.

Note that the numbers should be odd. So, in the unit digit should only be 5. 2, 4, 8 would make the number even.

Also, the first digit can only be two because other numbers would make it bigger than 300.

So, 2 ___ 5 is fixed. The middle digit could be any of the four.

So, 225; 245; 255 and 285 all satisfy the conditions.

So, four numbers can be formed.

Wilma works at a bird sanctuary and stores birdseed in plastic containers. She has 2 small containers that hold 8 pounds of bird
Amanda [17]

Answer:

 60 lbs left over

Step-by-step explanation:  Since the small containers hold 8 lbs each you multiply 8 by 2 since there are 2 containers. Same for the large, multiply 9 by 12 because each container holds 12 lbs and there is 9 containers. Then, you subtract 4 from that total because she already used 4 lbs.

x=(2*8)+(9*12)-4 Multiply

x=16+108-4 Simplify

x=120

So, before she fills the bird feeders she has 120 lbs of bird seed. There are 30 bird feeders and since they hold 2 lbs each you multiply 30 and 2. Then you subtract that from the 120 lbs because she is filling the bird feeders with that seed.

120- (30*2)

120-60= 60 lbs left over

Y=4(1/3)^x growth or decay and why ?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Decay

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation shown has a ratio(number raised to the power) less than 1, so therefore it is decay. This basically comes from the fact that if you raise a number less than 1 to a power, it become smaller than the number itself.

(In the cases talked about above, we are neglecting negative numbers)
