Answer:

A. $y=-\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{18}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $y=mx+b$ be the equation of the perpendicular line.

Two perpendicular lines have slopes with product equal to -1. The slope of the given line is $\frac{7}{8}$ Hence,

$\dfrac{7}{8}\cdot m=-1\\ \\m=-\dfrac{8}{7}$

is the slope of needed line.

This line passes through the point (-4,2), so its coordinates satisfy the equation:

$2=-\dfrac{8}{7}\cdot (-4)+b\\ \\b=2-\dfrac{32}{7}=-\dfrac{18}{7}$

Therefore, the equation of the line is

$y=-\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{18}{7}$

From 1940 to 1980, the consumer price index (CPI) increased from 28.6 to 89.4. If a gallon of milk cost $0.75 in 1940 and the pr

devlian [24]

28.6 / 89.4 = 0.75 / x
cross multiply
28.6x = 67.05
x = 67.05 / 28.6
x = 2.34 <==
