<span>y=1/5x+5 with the point (-6, 0)

The line perpendicular to this line will have a slope that's the negative reciprocal of this one. So if the slope here is 1/5 (based on y=mx+b, where m is the slope), then the perpendicular slope would be -5/1.

So now that you have the point and the slope, use the point-slope formula.
y - y</span>₁ = m(x - x₁)
m = -5
(x₁, y₁) = (-6, 0)

y - 0 = -5(x + 6)
y = -5x - 30

y = -5x - 30 is the line perpendicular to y=1/5x+5.

You need to flip the slope (or number in front of the x) and sign of it to do the perpendicular part. This should give you: y=-5x+b. Now put the -6 in for the x, and the 0 in for the y. Simply solve for an answer of -30=b. Your final answer is: y=-5x-30

Suppose there are 8 boys and 7 girls in a classroom. If one student is chosen at random to run a errand. What is the probability
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

47%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 15 total students, so find the percentage of girls out of the total students: 7/15= .466, which is about 47%. To double check, you can do the boys and make sure it adds to 100%. 8/15= .533, which is about 53%. 47+53=100. So girls are 47% and boys are 53%
