The slope perpendicular to the one given is the opposite reciprocal. So the slope of the "new" line will be -1/5. Using y = mx + b and filling in 3 for y, -10 for x and the slope, m, of -1/5 will help you solve for b. Then use that b to write the new equation. 3= -1/5(-10) + b and b = 1. Your equation, then, is y = -1/5x + 1
Math uses numbers and equations, and science requires the scientific method and experimentation
Alright, so I=prt. I is 1090-900=190=interest. It starts at 900, so that is p. R is 0.09. 1090=900*0.09*t, so 1090/(900*0.09)=t=around 13 years
