Which of the following lines is perpendicular to y = -5x - 2?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: c is perpendicular to y = -5x - 2

Explanation: The slope of a perpendicular line is an opposite reciprocal of the original slope/line. (Basically switch the numerator and denominator and the sign. In this case, the slope is -5/1x. It’s opposite reciprocal is 1/5x.)

You can take a look at my notes for further clarification. Hope this helps!

Which ratio is higher 15:20 or 12:16. for 35 points

Margarita [4]

To find which ratio is higher, we can first convert the ratios into fractions (that makes it easier, at least for me) and then simplify the fractions and see which one is greater.

Since ratios are basically division, 15:20 = $\frac{15}{20}$ , and

12:16 = $\frac{12}{16}$

Now we simplify these fractions. 15 and 20 have a GCF of 5, so taking out the common number gives us the simplified fraction of $\frac{3}{4}$ .

12 and 16 have a GCF of 4, so taking out the common number gives us the simplified fraction of $\frac{3}{4}$ . Since $\frac{3}{4}$ = $\frac{3}{4}$ , these ratios are the same.
