3 / (1/8) = 3 × (8/1) = 24
There needs to be 24 students on a team.
Answer:
y=-½x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) a perpendicular lines uses the opposite inverse of a line so the slope becomes -½x
2.) make an equation that looks as so:
y=-½x+b
the y intercept is unknown so it must be a variable.
3.) substitute the points you are given into the equation:
3=-½(4)+b
4.) solve for b
3=2+b
-2|-2
1=b
4.) place b into the equation
y=-½x + 1
D. is the answer
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
the slope is 2/3, so choose which point to be (x1, y1)
I am better at substitution, but you want to get the equations as similar as possible, but are the opposite, so you can cancel it out.
