Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (-9,-17).
y = 9x- 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation of line

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

y = mx + C

First first the slope of the equation

y = 9x - 4

Note: if two lines are perpendicular, their slope will be negative reciprocal

Slope = 9, but because it is perpendicular

m = -1/9

Using the equation

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

With the point (-9,-17)

x_1 = -9

y_1 = -17

y - (-17) = -1/9(x - (-9)

y + 17 = -1/9(x + 9)

y = -1/9(x + 9) - 17

Open the bracket.

y = (-x -9)/9 - 17

Lcm is 9

y = -x -9 - 153 / 9

y = -x - 162 / 9

Let's separate

y = -x/9 - 162/9

y = -x/9 - 18

y = -1/9x - 18

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = -1/9x - 18

54 km / hours

step-by-step explanation:

we need to convert seconds to hours

60 seconds = 1 minutes

60 minutes = 1hour

15 m         60 second   60 minutes

  * *         = 54000 meters/ hour

second     1 minute             1 hour

now we need to convert meters to km

1000 m = 1 km

54000 m       1 km

*   = 54 km / hours

hour               1000m
