Jada wants to know how much water comes out of her faucet in 15 minutes. If her faucet distributes 1.5 gallons of water each minute, how many gallons will it produce in 3 minutes?

both equations and proportions are better.

lockers 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 40, and 49 are open

i ran through it by the other answer is wrong

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
