OpenStudy (shamil98):

instead of cheating on your final/or test

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (jziggy):

The slope of a line perpendicular to that one is equal to the negative reciprocal of the line's slope.

OpenStudy (jziggy):

So the negative reciprocal of -1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait so its -1/3? not 3

OpenStudy (jziggy):

You want the negative reciprocal of -1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im so lost

OpenStudy (jziggy):

Ok, we can do this step by step, first multiply (-1/3) by -1

OpenStudy (jziggy):

what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont have time to go step by step im sory i have other work to do as well and its very later here

OpenStudy (jziggy):

This is literally a 5 second problem just think about it :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1/3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/3**

OpenStudy (jziggy):

Yes! and now what is the reciprocal of that?

OpenStudy (jziggy):

and that will be your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1/3?

OpenStudy (jziggy):

The reciprocal means to flip the numerator and denominator

OpenStudy (jziggy):

so instead of 1/3 you'll have....?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

OpenStudy (jziggy):

Yes! There you go :)
