Michael owns a small paper company called Michael Scott Paper Co. He has 5 clients and needs to sell them each a specific amount of paper. They have each ordered 3 3/10 worth of boxes. He has to find out how many paper boxes he has to sell and how much extra paper (in tenths) he has total.
IF you want to turn it into a question, add:
How many paper boxes is he selling?
With a uniform electric field, flux go along parallel paths, then flux is therefore proportional to the cosine of the angle rotated.
0 degree rotation => cos(0)=1 => 100% of flux.
60 degrees rotation => cos(60) => 0.5 => how many % of flux?
The slope of the given line is -1/3. The perpendicular line's slope is the opposite reciprocal of the given line's slope. So, the perpendicular line's slope is 3. Then we have slope intercept form y=mx+b
y=3x+b
We don't know "b" which is the y-intercept for this equation, but we have the coordinates (6, -1). We can use these to find the slope by plugging them into the equation.
-1=3(6)+b
-1=18+b
-1-18=18+b-18
-19=b
So, the resulting y-intercept is -19.
The final perpendicular equation would be y=3x-19
