What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x-3y=54. Fully simplify your answer.

1 answer:

7 0

Perpendicular = opposite sign and reciprocal slope
Make equation into y = mx + b
Add 3y to both sides
3y + 54 = 3x
Subtract 54
3y = 3x - 54
Divide by 3
y = x - 18
The slope is 1
Make it negative and reciprocal
= -1/1 = -1

Solution: the slope will be -1

Factor 15 + 50.<br> 5(10 + 3)<br> 5(3 + 10)<br> 3(5 + 25)<br> 10(5 + 5)

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the expression:

$15+50$

Since 5 goes into both 15 and 50, we can factor out a 5. First, rewrite the numbers as:

$5(3)+5(10)$

Factor out the 5:

$=5(3+10)$

So, our answer is B

And we're done!
