Answer:

Perpendicular slope = – 1/m = -1/3 = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

  • (-1,2)
  • (-2,-1)

\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-1,\:2\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-2,\:-1\right)

m=\frac{-1-2}{-2-\left(-1\right)}

m=\frac{-1-2}{-2-\left(-1\right)}

m=3

We know that a line perpendicular to another line contains a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line, such as:

slope = m = 3

perpendicular slope = – 1/m = -1/3 = -1/3

Thus, the slope of any line perpendicular to GH = -1/3

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

  • first shift: 13,750 bulbs
  • second shift: 2500 bulbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The production ratio is ...

  shift 1 : shift 2 = 5.5 : 1 = 11 : 2

so, the production on shift 1 as a ratio to the total is ...

  shift 1 : total = 11 : (11+2) = 11 : 13

The first shift produced ...

  (11/13)(16,250 bulbs) = 13,750 bulbs . . . . first shift

and the second shift produced ...

  (2/13)(16,250 bulbs) = 2,500 bulbs . . . . second shift

_____

Of course, once you have one of the numbers, you can also find the other by using the 5.5 factor or by subtracting from total production.
