Answer:

y = x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, so the line will have a slope of 1.

Then, plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b to solve for b:

y = mx + b

-4 = 1(-9) + b

-4 = -9 + b

5 = b

Plug in the slope and b into y = mx + b:

y = 1x + 5

y = x + 5

So, the equation of the line is y = x + 5

Take the square root. The opposite of squaring something is taking the root :)

√x^2 = √26

x = √26

x = 5.099...

OR leave it if your teacher doesn't want a decimal since it can't be simplified anymore

Vinegar is the x or horizontal oil is the y or vertical
$\frac{3}{2} = \frac{y}{x} \\ 3x = 2y \\ y = \frac{3}{2} x$
the point represent the amount of vinegar and oil so for 1 tbsp vinegar you need 1.5tbsp oil
