The perpendicular line will have an equation of y=3/4x-3/4
To find this, we first have to solve our equation for slope intercept form.
8x + 6y = -5 ----> subtract 8x
6y = -8x + -5 ----> divide by 6
y = -4/3x - 5/6.
So we know the slope of this equation to be -4/3. Since perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes, we know we can simply flip the fraction and make it a negative to get the new slope of 3/4. Since B is the only option with that slope, we know it to be the correct answer.
Step 2: commutative property of multiplication
Step 3: multiplicative inverse
Step 4: multiplicative identity
The answer is 7.
Look at the x=8 and then look up the y-value.
The graph passes (8,7) so therefore when x = 8 the y is 7
The figure is right triangle with base =segment AB = 3 and height = segment AC = 2.
The angle B has tangent, tan (B) = 2 / 3
The angle C, has tangent, tan (C) = 3 / 2
Then, the answer is option C, tan C
