Answer:

12/25

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem tells us that we need to use 25 equally sized stones to make a 12 feet long path. As the stones must be equally sized, you have to divide 12 by 25 to distribute the feet length equally. Therefore, 12 divided by 25 is just rewritten as 12/25 feet long.

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x+2y=28

malfutka [58]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, place the given equation in slope-intercept form ( $y = mx +b$ format) to find its slope easier. Isolate the y:

$2x + 2y = 28\\2y = -2x + 28\\y = -x+14$

So, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = -x + 14$ . When an equation is in slope-intercept form, the $m$ , or the coefficient of the x-term, represents the slope. Thus, the slope for the given line would be -1.

2) Lines that are perpendicular have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of each other. We need to find the opposite reciprocal of -1, then.

To find the opposite reciprocal of a number, write the given number as a fraction first -- making -1 be written as $-\frac{1}{1}$ -- then switch the sign and flip the numerator and denominator. So, the opposite reciprocal of -1 is 1, and 1 is the slope of the perpendicular line.
