Answer:

The first graph shows a slope of 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the slope is 3, it's actually 3/1 because of rise/run. So you find any point on the graph that's directly between two lines, like (-1,-5). Since the line is positive, you would go right one and up three. Then you see if that point is directly between two lines. The next point is (0, -2). If you did the same on the second graph, it wouldn't match up.

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to the 13x-3y=9 and passing through (-5,0)

Answer:

x +4y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the perpendicular line can be found by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. The new constant can be found by substituting the point values into the equation.

3x +12y = 3(-5) +12(0)

3x +12y = -15

We notice that all of the values include a factor of 3. We can divide that out to put the equation in standard form:

x + 4y = -5
