<h3><u>Question:</u></h3>
The length of an object in feet is equal to 3 times its length in yards. The length of a waterslide is 48 feet. Write and solve a multiplication equation to find the length of the waterslide in yards.
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>The length of waterslide is 16 yards
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>Given that,
The length of an object object in feet is equal to 3 times it’s length in yards
The length of wall water side slide is 48 feet
Let "y" be the length of object in yards
Write and solve a multiplication equation to find the length of the waterslides in yard
From given,
Length in feet = 3 times length in yards
<em><u>Therefore, the multiplication equation is:</u></em>
Solve the equation for "y"
Divide both sides of equation by 3
Thus length of waterslide is 16 yards
Slope intercept form: y = mx + b
When a line is perpendicular to another line, its slope is the negative reciprocal to that slope.
From this information, we already know that the slope of our new line is -1/2, because -1/2 is the negative reciprocal to 2 (which is the slope of the original line).
y = -1/2x + b
Because the point (-5,3) is given, we can simply plug the x and y coordinates into our incomplete equation.
3 = -1/2(-5) + b
3=2.5 + b
b = 0.5
ANSWER: y = -1/2x + 0.5
THE GRAPH IS LINKED; RED LINE IS y=2x-3 AND BLUE LINE IS y=-1/2x + 0.5
