Y = -2/3x + 7.....the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All tht means is take the original slope, flip it, and change the sign. So we take -2/3....flip it making it -3/2.....change the sign making it 3/2. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(-5,6)....x = -5 and y = 6
now sub and find b, the y int
6 = 3/2(-5) + b
6 = -15/2 + b
6 + 15/2 = b
12/2 + 15/2 = b
27/2 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x + 27/2 <==
Answer:
5 x 199
Step-by-step explanation:
You can see that it is divisible by 5, a prime number, because it ends in 5. Once you divide it, you get 199 which itself is a prime number.
Answer:
112
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of all percentage questions is: the chunk= (some percentage) (of the whole), or c=p*w
We know that 18% of students are 8th grade and that is 126 students, so p = 0.18 and c=126 (126 students are 18% of the whole school)
126 = (0.18)w, divide both sides by 0.18
126/(0.18) = w = 700
9th graders are 16% of the school or 16% of 700 students
c = (0.16) 700 = 112 students
The answer is 3/4 hope i help
