Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope.
Given line y = - 3x + 78, slope, m₁ = -3
<em><u>To find the line perpendicular to the given line.</u></em>
The lines are perpendicular to each other if the product of their slopes = - 1
That is,
So the slope of new line is
We can either convert them to decimals or to fractions
if decimals
2/3=0.66666666
4/5=8/10=0.8
so the order is
-0.6, 0.65, 0.66, 0.8 or
-0.6, 0.65, 2/3, 4/5
if conver to fractions then
since -0.6 is negative, it is smallest, no need to convert
0.65=65 hundreths=65/100
2/3=66/99=prety close
4/5=8/10=80/100
order is
-0.6, 65/100, 66/99, 80/100 or
-0.6, 0.65, 2/3, 0.8
Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 x 2 = 1/2
1/2 divided by 2 is 1/4
-18 - 30 = -48
