Answer: Options 1, 3, 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals, so since the slope of the given line is 1/3, we need to find lines with a slope of -3.
- Option 1 has a slope of -3.
- Option 2 has a slope of 3.
- Option 3 has a slope of -3.
- Option 4 has a slope of 1/3.
- If we subtract 3x from both sides, we get y=-3x+7, so option 5 has a slope of -3.
Answer:
26 + y
----------
9y
Step-by-step explanation:
Your using parentheses here would remove a great deal of ambiguity. Looking at your 8-y/3y + y+2/9y - 2/6y, I have interpreted it to mean:
(8-y)/3y + (y+2)/9y - (2/6)y. For example, without parentheses, your 8-y/3y might be interpreted differently, as 8 - y/(3y), or 8 - 1/3.
Looking at (8-y)/3y + (y+2)/9y - (2/6)y again, we see three different denominators: 3y, 9y and 6 y. The LCD here is 9y. Multiplying all three terms of (8-y)/3y + (y+2)/9y - (2/6)y by the LCD, we get:
3(8-y) + (y+2) + 3y. We must now divide this by the LCD:
3(8-y) + (y+2) + 3y
--------------------------
9y
Next we need to perform the indicated multiplication:
24 - 3y + y + 2 + 3y
----------------------------
9y
and then to combine like terms:
24 + 2 - 3y + y + 3y, 26 + y
---------------------------- or -----------
9y 9y
It is most likely looking for a simplified version of the answer
Based off that assumption it would be
9:7
