Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
1) First, place the given equation in slope-intercept form ( format) to find its slope easier. Isolate the y:
So, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is . When an equation is in slope-intercept form, the
, 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 -- 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.
Answer:
27 balls
Step-by-step explanation:
If Dianna and Becky stopped 9 out of 10 shots made against them.
It means they allowed in 1 out of 10 shots made against them.
This is best solved using ratios
Proportion of Shots Stopped : Proportion of Shots allowed=9:1
If the other team scores 3 points, it means the number of shots allowed =3
Let x be the number of shots stopped
Number of Shots Stopped : Number of Shots allowed=x:3
Therefore:
9:1=x:3
Cross multiplying
x=9 X 3 =27
Dianna and Becky stopped 27 balls from going into the net,
