To find the equation for the line in slope-intercept form y= mx + b, perpendicular to the line shown and passing through (6, -6):
The slope of the blue line is the rise (change in y) divided by run (change in x)
Choosing two points on the line (0, -6) and (2,0)
Slope = (0 - (-6)) / (2 - 0) = 6 / 2 = 3
The slope of our perpendicular line will be the opposite inverse, so:
m = -1/3
We have the point (6, -6) so we can solve for b
y = mx + b
-6 = (-1/3)*6 + b
-6 = -2 + b
b = -4
We know that m= (-1/3) and b= -4, so:
y = (-1/3)x - 4
This is definitely the correct answer. None of the above answers describe the line that is perpendicular to the blue line and passes through (6, -6). Make sure you wrote the options down correctly.
To solve this problem, we know from the statement that Initially, the club has $ 152050 in its bank account.
To know the amount of money you want to reserve for the trip, multiply the initial amount by 0.28.
So, we have:
$ 1,520.50 * 0.28 = $ 425.74
Finally, the club will reserve $ 425.74 from its bank account to travel.
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+3)/2=6
Multiply each side by 2
2*(x+3)/2=6*2
x+3 = 12
Subtract 3 from each side
x+3-3 = 12-3
x = 9
8/15 is about 0.53
It would be closer to 1/2 or 1 over 2
Answer: Scale Factor = 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The base of triangle X has a length of 12, and the base of triangle x' has a length of 3. Therefore, the scale factor is 1/4, because 12 x 1/4 = 3.
