Answer:
B. y = 1/3x
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the given line is -3, so the slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(-3) = 1/3. This eliminates choices A and C.
We can find the y-intercept (b) if we use the given point values in the equation ...
y = 1/3x +b
we get ...
-2 = (1/3)(-6) +b
-2 = -2 +b . . . simplify
0 = b . . . . . . . add 2
So, the equation of the perpendicular line through the given point is ...
y = 1/3x . . . . matches choice B
_____
<em>Alternate solution method</em>
You can try the given point in the given equations. You will find that only the equation of choice B will work.
14a. =
15b. 2/3 is less than 0.667
16c. 3 7/8 is greater than 3.375
17d. 3/8 is less than 1/2
Answer:
I have proven m is 10. have a good day and give brainliest if possible.
If you divide 96 by 6 then you get 16. So it's 16 days!
