Answer:
?????.... hii erica herrrr
4x - 3y + 20 = 0....4x - 3y = -21
4x - 3y = -21.....multiply by -2
5x - 6y = -25
----------------
-8x + 6y = 42 (result of multiplying by -2)
5x - 6y = -25
---------------add
-3x = 17
x = -17/3
this system of equations has 1 solution
In order to find the slop it is probably best to put the equation in y=mx+b form. This means to get y by itself on one side.
24x-9y=63 will then become -9y=63-24x in which y has been isolated.
Then you should divided by -9 to get the final form: y=24x/9 -63/9.
Now you can get the slope of the perpendicular line by taking the slope of the original equation and finding its reciprocal which is -9/24x. This is your answer.
