Determine the missing information in the paragraph proof. Given: Line PQ is rotated 90° counterclockwise to form line P’Q’. The lines are perpendicular. Line PQ contains the points (a, b) and (c, d). Line P’Q’ contains the points (–b, a) and (–d, c).

Prove: The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.

On a coordinate plane, 2 perpendicular lines are shown. Line P Q has points (a, b) and (c, d). Line P prime Q prime has points (negative b, a) and (negative d, c).

The slopes of lines PQ and P’Q’ can be determined using the formula m = StartFraction v 2 minus v 1 Over x 2 minus x 1 EndFraction

The product of these slopes is . This product shows that the slopes are negative reciprocals. It is given that the lines are perpendicular and we have shown that the slopes of the lines are negative reciprocals.

The table shows the relationship between the number of cups of cereal and the number of cups of raisins in a cereal bar recipe: number of cups of cereal number of cups of raisins 8 2 12 3 16 4 molly plotted an equivalent ratio as shown on the grid below: a graph is shown. the title of the graph is cereal bars. the horizontal axis label is cereal in cups. the x-axis values are 0, 20, 40, 60, 80,100. the vertical axis label is raisins in cups. the y-axis values are 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50. a point is plotted on the ordered pair 40,20. which of these explains why the point molly plotted is incorrect? (a) if the number of cups of cereal is 40, then the number of cups of raisins will be10. (b)if the number of cups of raisins is 40, then the number of cups of cereal will be10. (c) if the number of cups of cereal is 40, then the number of cups of raisins will be 80. (d) if the number of cups of raisins is 40, then the number of cups of cereal will be 80.
