Answer:

y = x - 4

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals—multiplying their slopes result in -1.

Given the slope of a line m = -1, then it means that the slope of the other line must be 1 (because multiplying the slope of line 1  (m1 = -1), and the slope of the other line (m2 = 1) results in: -1 × 1 = -1).

Therefore, given the slope of line 2 (m2 = 1), and the point (2, -2), we could plug these values into the slope-intercept form and solve for the y-intercept (b):

y = mx + b

-2 = 1(2) + b

-2 = 2 + b

Subtract 2 from both sides to solve for b:

-2 - 2 = 2 - 2 + b

-4 = b

Therefore, the y-intercept (b) = -4.

Hence, the equation of the perpendicular line is: y = x - 4

Virty [35]

Answer:

<em>Buffalo's snowfall rate is 1.83</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Rate of change</u>

It usually refers to how fast one quantity changes with respect to another, frequently time.

In our problem, we are given the information on two snowfall rates, one during the winter of 2012–2013 in Buffalo, New York, and the other in Oswego, New York. Buffalo received 22 inches of snow in 12 hours. It means the rate of change or ratio of snowfall in time is:

\boxed{\displaystyle s_1=\frac{22}{12}=1.83}

The snowfall rate received by Oswego is:

\displaystyle s_2=\frac{31}{15}=2.07
