Answer:
y = 1/3x - 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another so m = -1/3
Given (-1,-3)
y = mx + b
-3 = -1/3(-1) + b
-9/3 = 1/3 + b
b = -10/3
so y = 1/3x - 10/3
I, II, and III are all correct.
Answer:
The first choice is the one you want
Step-by-step explanation:
Use geometric means to solve for a first. The formula is
and 64 = 15a and a = 64/15
That one was quite easy. Finding b is a bit more difficult.
The formula for finding b is

Solving for b:

Filling in we have
and
and
so b = 136/15
2.2 over 6 that the answer
The evaluate expression is 25/3
