Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line has the form y = mx + b where m is the slope. Here the slope is m = 3. A line perpendicular to it will have a negative reciprocal slope. The negative reciprocal of 3 is -1/3.
I'm 17 and I'm in my Junior year of high school.
Solve the system by the elimination method.
2a + 3b = 6
5a + 2b - 4 = 0
multiply thru the top equation by 2
Multiply thru the bottom equation by 3
4a + 6b = 12
15a+ 6b = 12
Subtract and solve for "a":
11a = 0
a = 0
Solve for "b" using 2a + 3b = 6
2*0 + 3b = 6
b = 2
In your question which ask for the how its possible for the two triangles to intersect in one, two, three, four, five, six points but not seven points. Its because the triangles has only 3 sides which means that the intersection that could from in the two is less than 7 or maximum of 6
