Answer:
-7/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a perpendicular line is the "negative reciprocal" of the slope of the original line. so just switch the numbers and put the top number into a negative.
Answer:
y = 3x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the line is parallel, it has the same slope -- 3
y = 3x + b, sub point (1, 9)
9 = 3(1) + b
9 = 3 + b
b = 9 - 3
b = 6
y = 3x + b -- y = 3x + 6
Lets use the letter C to represent cats and D to represent dogs.
A) 2.35c + 5.50d = 89.50
For B, they give you numbers to plug into your equation.
c = 8
d= 14
B) 2.35(8) + 5.50(14) = 89.50
18.80 + 77.00 = 95.80
So what Pat said is incorrect because that would mean they spent more than 89.50.
Hope this helps! :)
