Find an equation of the line perpendicular to Y equals 3X -3 and passes through the point -3 and -1

Mathematics
1 answer:
Snowcat [4.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{3} x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{3} , then

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, - 1) into the partial equation

- 1 = 1 + c ⇒ c = - 1 - 1 = - 2

y = - \frac{1}{3} x - 2 ← equation of perpendicular line

What is true about 3 squared x 4 squared
BARSIC [14]
Hello there, and thank you for posting your question here on brainly.

Short answer: C. Product of 2 rational numbers = a rational number.

Why?

The numbers are both rational because squared is a result of a number multiplied by itself. Like (3^2 = 9). It turns out as a rational number because you're multiplying by two positive numbers, which always turns out as a rational number. (3^2 * 4^2 ==> 144) [3^2 = 9] [4^2 = 16]

Hope this helped you! ♥

The weight of a nickel is 80% of a quarter. If a nickel weighs 5 grams how much does a quarter weigh?
muminat

Answer:

Weight of a quarter  = 6.25 grams

Weight of a dime  = 2.5 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of a nickel is  80%

The weight of a quarter  or the weight of a nickel is 5 grams or weight of a quarter =50.8 = 6.25 grams

Weight of a dime = 50% = 12 (weight of nickel) = 52 = 2.5 grams

Help please - first question
Afina-wow [57]
The answer should be x=60. ABD are an equilateral triangle all the angles must add up to 180. 60*3=180. Also if you have a protractor you can measure the angle C, the 60 degrees part and measure it against A, D and B. Hope this helps.
