Because line AB is perpendicular to line BC, the slope of AB is equal to 3/2. Substituting (-2,1) into the new equation gives us "1=3/2(-2)+b" which simplifies to 1=-3+b. This means that b=4.
we are asked to determine three equivalent ratios for fractions. in this case, we just have to multiply a number each for the numerator and the denominator. we take, 2,3, and 4 in this case. 4/3: 8/6, 12/9, 16/1212/14: 24/28, 36/42, 48/566/9: 12/18, 18/27, 24/36
