Answer: -1/2

You get y = 2x - 5, so the slope is 2. Perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes, so the slope of the line we want to find is -1/2.

Given: 5n - 42 = 12n; Prove: n= -6<br> What are the Statements<br> What are the Reasons
asambeis [7]

Answer:

-72=-72

Step-by-step explanation:

5n-42=12n

n=-6

5*(-6)-42 = 12*(-6)

-30-42=-72

-72=-72

So, n= -6 is the right number for this equation

Graph y = 3x - 3 and label the x- and y-intercepts. My answer: (0,3)
Lesechka [4]
The slope-intercept form of the linear function is y = m x + b , where m is the slope and b is y-intercept.
Here we have: y = 3 x - 3
a ) When y = 0
0 = 3 x - 3
- 3 x  = - 3
x = ( - 3 ) : ( - 3 ) 
x = 1
When x = 0
y = 3 * 0 - 3 
y = - 3
So x - intercept is ( 1, 0 ) and y-intercept is ( 0, - 3 ).
b ) The slope:
m = ( y2 - y1) / ( x2 - x1 ) = 
= ( - 3 - 3 ) / ( 5- 7 ) = ( - 6 ) /( - 2 ) = 6 / 2 = 3
Answer: The slope m = 3 .
