Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope of the given line in this two way:

1) the faster is calculate -a/b where a is the number the multiply x and b is the number the multiply y. In this case we have -1/3

2) the second method is rewrite the equation in slope intercept form and find the therm that multiply x

3y = -x-15

y = -1/3x - 5

Also in this case we have -1/3

Two perpendicular lines have the the product of the their slope that is -1

So the slope that we are finding is 3

In fact = 3 x -1/3 = -1

Katie is building a rectangular wall. The wall will be 332 bricks wide and 39 bricks tall. She has 15,000 bricks. Does she have
agasfer [191]
Katie has enough bricks because it only takes 12,948 bricks to build the wall. To get 12,948, you will multiply 332 by 39. So basically you are multiplying the width by how tall it is.

The area of a square piece of land in square units can be represented by the expression 9q4r8s6. What is the length of one side
sveta [45]
Knowing that the area of a square is equivalent the square of its side length, the length of one side can be calculated by taking the square root of the area. The square root of the expression 9q^4r^8s^8 units is equivalent to <span>3q2r4|s3| units. When taking the square root of variables, the power they are raised to is divided by 2.</span>

Which of the following are true?
Kitty [74]

Answer: c).

Both options are true. You can see that the whiskers of data set 2 (The lines extending on either side of the box plots) represent a much larger range of data than data set 1, and that the median in data set 2 (the line down the middle of the boxes) is greater than data set 1.

Hope this helps!
