Lines m and p are perpendicular. if the slope of line m is -3 what is the slope of line p

Mathematics

For two lines to be perpendicular, their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:

m1*m2=-1, in this case our reference line has a slope of -3 so:

-3m=-1  divide both sides by -3

m=-1/-3

m=1/3

So the perpendicular line will have a slope of 1/3

Find a solution to the following system of equations.<br><br> −2x + y = −3<br> −x + 2y = 3
exis [7]
Multiply the first equation by -2 to give 

4x - 2y = 6
-x + 2y = 3     Adding:-
3x = 9
x = 3
Plug x = 3 into second equation:-
-3 + 2y = 3
2y = 6
y = 3

List all the elements of the sample space for the following experiment: You spin a spinner with four equal sections labeled 1, 2
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we spin a spinner the sample space for a spinner having four equal sections labeled 1, 2, 3, 4 will be {1, 2, 3, 4} and for tossing the dime is {H, T}.

Now if we toss a dime and spinning the spin is done simultaneously then sample space will have the elements {(1, H), (2, H), (3, H), (4, H), (1, T), (2, T), (3,T), (4, T)}

Therefore Option B. is the correct option.
