Y = -2/3x + 5....the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, we flip the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2 (see how I flipped -2/3 making it -3/2....and then changed the sign, making it 3/2)
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(8,1)....x = 8 and y = 1
now we sub and find b, the y int
1 = 3/2(8) + b
1 = 12 + b
1 - 12 = b
-11 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x - 11 <==
First you write an equation 1/2 divided by 5 than you change the division sign to a multiplication sign then you change the 5 to 1/5 then you multiply 1/2 times 1/5 and you get 1/10
The answer is “the cost for every 1 lawn mowed”. This is because the graph is showing an increase in price every time another lawn is mowed.
