write an equation of the line with the following information. Through (4,1) and perpendicular to y=1/3x +3

1 answer:

5 0

Perpendicular means the two lines' slopes are negative reciprocal to each other. the slope of the given line is 1/3, therefore the slope of the perpendicular line is -3/1, which is -3
use the point-slope form: the given point is (4,1), so (y-1)=-3(x-4)
you can stop right here or you can write it into slope intercept form:
y-1=-3x+12
y=-3x+13

Semenov [28]

Answer:

spider : 5

beetle : 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of legs --> 8 + 6 = 14 ( 1 set )

Number of sets that can fit --> 76 ÷ 14 = 5 R 6

Since each set has a beetle and a spider,

Number of spider -->5 × 1 = 5

Since there are additional 6 legs:

Number of beetles --> ( 5 × 1 )+ 1 = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Skylar has a collection of 60 comic books

She gave away some of her books

And she left by 48 books

we need to find out the percent of the skylar give away books

= (60 - 48) ÷ 60

= 12 books ÷ 60 books

= 20%

Hence, the percent of her comic books did Skylar give away is 20%
