The perpendicular line would have a slope of 1/3.
Perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. So first we have to find the slope of the original line. We can do this by solving the equation for y.
5x - 9y = 1
-9y = -5x + 1
y = 5/9x - 1/9
To do the opposite, take the original slope (5/9) and change the sign (-5/9).
To do the reciprocal, take the slope we changed (-5/9) and flip it as a fraction (-9/5).
This gives us a new slope of
Divide 5 and the amount of items
The width of the rectangular pen is equal to 14 feet.
If f(x) is given with points (0,5) and (4,3), it can be easily plotted in a coordinate system (see .jpeg image in attachment).If g(x) is a function defined by text:
Kyle started the summer having read 3 books but plans to read 6 books per month over the summer.Then, g(x) is given with:
g(x) = 6*x+3 (3 books read already, and 6 books will be read each month).h(x) is already given with:
h(x)=3*x+4
These all three functions are plotted in coordinate system and it can be seen that the lowest y-intercept has function g(x), and it is the value of 3 on y-axis. Others have 4 (h(x)) and 5 (f(x)).
