Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this, just take the negative reciprocal of 1/2. We obtain -2.
X + 5y = 6
5y = -x + 6
y = -1/5x + 6/5....the slope here is -1/5. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip the original slope and change the sign. So we flip -1/5 and make is -5/1....and we change the sign...making it 5/1 or just 5. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of 5.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 5
(2,-2)...x = 2 and y = -2
sub and find b, the y int
-2 = 5(2) + b
-2 = 10 + b
-2 - 10 = b
-12 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 5x - 12 <=
I believe in standard form this would be 31/2 + 27i/2
Answer:
tree sampling: 2 1/4ft
through 1 year grown: 1 1/6ft
after two years growing: 5ft
1 1/6 coverted into a decimal is 0.16
0.16 x 32 = 5.12 (5)
not sure if this is right, but hope it helps
