Answer:

y = -3/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you know it has a point at (0, 2) - the y intercept, put those values into the equation and solve. To be perpendicular it seems the reciprocal of the slope with the opposite sign, so 2/3 is the original slope, and -3/2 becomes the new slope.

y = 2/3x + 8 becomes

2 = -3/2(0) + b  We substitute in the x and y values, but we have to figure out what the last number will be.

2 = 0 + b

b = 2

So put the whole equation together

y = -3/2x + 2

Evaluate t Divided 3/4 for T equal 9 3/4
Molodets [167]
T / 3/4 ; t = 9 3/4

9 3/4 / 3/4

9 3/4 = 39/4

39/4 / 3/4
39/4 x 4/3
39 x 4 = 156
4 x 3 = 12
156/12 / 4/4 = 39/3 = 13
