perpendicular = negative reciprocal

should multiply with -8 to give -1

-8x = -1

x = -1/-8

perpendicular slope = 1/8

(explanation: perpendicular lines have a slope that is the negative reciprocal and multiply with 8 to give -1)

parallel slope = 8

(parallel lines have the same slope)

Express in the form 1:n<br> 3:12
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3: 12

To express in the form 1:n

Consider how to make 3 equal to 1, we simply divide 3 by 3 to get 1 as such, we would also divide 12 by 3

3:12

= 3/3:12/3

= 1:4

Comparing with 1:n, it is safe to say that n = 4

What is the equation in point slope form of a line that passes through the points (-8,2) and had a slope of 1/2
AysviL [449]
First you have to plug in your information into the formula- y=mx+b
So we know the y is 2, the slope (m) is 1/2, the x is 2 and we don't know the b. Do plug it in the formula and solve... you should get 2=1/2(2)+b you will end up with 1=b and the final answer is y=1/2x+1
