Answer:
The answer is 1/9.
Step-by-step explanation:
When solving for the slope of a perpendicular line to a given, you have to flip the opposite reciprocal.
First take the number and flip the reciprocal, in this case -9 turns into -1/9.
Then flip the sign, like making a negative to a positive or a positive to a negative. In this case make -1/9 into 1/9
Therefore the answer is 1/9.
First, always draw. You learned to draw in kindergarben (Yes I spelled it like that on purpose LOL) for a reason.
1) Draw your rectangle on a piece of paper or paint.
2) Scale factor each side to enlarge which means you're going to multiply.
--- Note if it said 'to reduce' then you would divide.
3) Then find the area by multiplying the two given sides (12 x 6 = 72).
4) Don't forget your unit of measurement - 72ft²
So your answer is D.
