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)

What is the decimal and percent of 5/20 please help me. thank u
Korvikt [17]
The percentage is 25, a trick you can use to find the percentage when you have a decimal is to move the decimal point two places to the right like if  you have .25 you move the decimal point two places to the right. another example is .38, you move the decimal point two places  to the RIGHT and get 38 which is the percentage :)

Answer:

Part 1) \frac{5}{2}  or  5:2

Part 2) \frac{8}{1}  or  8:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the ratio as a fraction in simplest form

so

\frac{15}{6}

Simplify

Divide by 3 both numerator and denominator

\frac{5}{2}\ \frac{girls}{boys}

Part 2) 24 plays for 3 teams

we know that

To find out the ratio, divide the number of plays by the number of teams

so

\frac{24}{3}

Simplify

Divide by 3 both numerator and denominator

\frac{8}{1}\ \frac{plays}{team}
