Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y=(-1/5)x+9 and passes through the point (-2,-2)

y = 5x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that if two lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals of one another.  Thus, given y = (-1/5)x + 9, the slope of any perpendicular is

           -1

m = = 5

        (-1/5)

Starting out with the slope-intercept equation y = mx + b, we get:

-2 = 5(-2) + C, or C = 8

Thus, the desired equation is

y = 5x + 8

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.

14 ft 7 inches

step-by-step explanation:

since each model inch corresponds to 25 real inches, 7 model inches will correspond to

7×25" = 175"

at 12" per foot, that is 14 feet, 7 inches.
