Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

x – 2y = 12

-2y = -x + 12

y = 1/2x - 6

Slope in above equation is 1/2. If you want the slope of a perpendicular line take the inverse opposite which makes it -2/1 or just simply -2.

Rewrite the equation with the perpendicular slope:

y = -2x - 6

Use prime factorization to reduce the fraction 36/180

laila [671]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

36 = 6* 6 = 2* 3 * 2* 3 = 2*2*3*3

180 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 5 = 2 * 2 * 3*3*5

$\frac{36}{180}= \frac{2*2*3*3}{2*2*3*3*5} = \frac{1}{5}$
