According to my calculations,
A. is the correct answer.
8√5
Y = -2/3x + 7.....the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All tht means is take the original slope, flip it, and change the sign. So we take -2/3....flip it making it -3/2.....change the sign making it 3/2. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(-5,6)....x = -5 and y = 6
now sub and find b, the y int
6 = 3/2(-5) + b
6 = -15/2 + b
6 + 15/2 = b
12/2 + 15/2 = b
27/2 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x + 27/2 <==
It could be 3/2 or it could be 1 1/2
Only 3 kids could eat equally because 3 is the highest number that goes into 12 and 9
