Line a is perpindicular to line b if the slope of line a is 1/8 what is the sllope of line b?

Since the slope would be perpendicular, you would reciprocate and change the sign of the current slope.

Let's start by reciprocating the slope:

1/8 -> 8/1

Now change the sign:

8/1 -> -8/1

Note:

-8/1 also means -8

Answer

The slope of line b would be -8

25/4

step-by-step explanation:

call segment cd's length x. because dc and ab are parallel, angle acd and cab, so triangles adc and abc are similar and we can set up the equation x / ac = ac / ab, or x / 5 = 5 / 4 and x = 25/4.

the red lines denote the population of the bacteria after 35 hours. that would be 2,409.24. the y-intercept is the blue line which is 800 because that is the starting point. the equation used to make the graph is 800(1.032)^h, where h is the number of hours.
