(–8, 8) and (2, 2)
(–5, –1) and (0, 2)
(–3, 6) and (6, –9)
(–2, 1) and (3, –2)
(0, 2) and (5, 5)

Respuesta :

It's (-8,8) and (2,2)

     (-2,1) and (3,-2)

Answer:

(–3, 6) and (6, –9) and  (0, 2) and (5, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Slope = [tex]\frac{-3}{5}[/tex].

To find: Which ordered pairs could be points on a line that is perpendicular to this line.

Solution : We have given that  Slope = [tex]\frac{-3}{5}[/tex].

Slope = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}- x_{1}}[/tex].

For (–8, 8) and (2, 2)

Slope = [tex]\frac{2- 8 }{2 + 8}[/tex].

Slope = [tex]\frac{-6 }{10}[/tex].

Slope = [tex]\frac{-3 }{5}[/tex].

For (–5, –1) and (0, 2).

Slope = [tex]\frac{2+1 }{0 + 5}[/tex].

Slope = [tex]\frac{3 }{5}[/tex].

For, (–3, 6) and (6, –9)

Slope = [tex]\frac{-9- 6}{6 + 3}[/tex].

Slope = [tex]\frac{-15 }{9}[/tex].

Slope = [tex]\frac{-5}{3}[/tex].

For (–2, 1) and (3, –2)

Slope = [tex]\frac{-2 -1 }{3 +2}[/tex].

Slope  = [tex]\frac{-3 }{5}[/tex].

For (0, 2) and (5, 5)

Slope = [tex]\frac{5 -2 }{5 -0}[/tex].

Slope =  [tex]\frac{3 }{5}[/tex].

Therefore,  (–3, 6) and (6, –9) and  (0, 2) and (5, 5)
