To find the slope intercept form of a line perpendicular to a given equation, the first thing you need to do is to find the slope of the perpendicular line. Because lines perpendicular to one another are always have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of them, the slope of the line perpendicular to y=x would be -1 (since the slope of y=x is 1). Then, since the perpendicular line passes through the point (5, -3), you would plug in the values of the x and y into the equation
y=-1x+b to get -3=-1(5)+b.
When you simplify, solve for b to get b=2. Now that you have your slope (m=-1) and your y-intercept (b=2), you can conclude that your perpendicular equation would be y=-x+2.
So, personally I would take 252 and divide it by 4. this will give you 63 which is 1/4 of the cookies. Then add that 63 three times to get a total of 189 cookies which would be your 3/4 sold. so since there is only 63 cookies left then you would go into your final problem. 3/9 is equal to 1/3, so all you would do is divide 63 by 3 and get a total of 21 cookies given to the pta.
Answer:
Henri filled 18 gift bags. Hope this helps!!
Step-by-step explanation:
You half to divide how many candies that you are putting in the bag by the amount you have. So if you have 432 candies and you are putting 24 in each bag you would have 18 bags.
