A line perpendicular means that the slope is the negative reciprocal of the slope given. Since m=3 in the given equation, the slope in the perpendicular line has to be m = -1/3. The y-intercept can be any number.
So a line perpendicular would be y = -1/3x + b
Since you can plug anything into b, you can get many different answers. For example, y = -1/3x + 7 or y = -1/3x - 2
Answer:
hi! so for perpendicular it's negative reciprocal!
so is -4/3 and 3/4 negative reciprocals?
oh and remember reciprocals are flipped!
if you still don't get it let me know aha
Answer:
Molly can drive her car 112 miles on 4 gallons of gas and 182 miles on 6.5 gallons write an equation to show the relationship between the number of gallons she has and the number of miles she can drive and how many gallons she would need to drive 420 miles⊂⇄∪↓Ф
Step-by-step explanation:
First distribute 3 to (x-4). that gives you 3x-12. Now your equation is x-2=3x-12. Now you subtract x from 3x. now you're equation is -2=2x-12. then add 12 to the left. You're final answer is 10.
