We can use the points given to solve for the slope.

Slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

7-3/4-1

4/3

Find the y-intercept.

y = mx + b

3 = 4/3(1) + b

3 = 4/3 + b

5/3 = b

The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite and reciprocal.

4/3 -> -3/4

Write the new equation.

y = -3/4x + 5/3

Best of Luck!

What is the exponents <br>​
zmey [24]
The exponent of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.

For Example, In 8² , the 2 is the number of times 8 has to be multiplied. In this case It has to multiplied by itself 2 times, 8x8 = 64 so 8² = 64.
Another example is 9³ since the number above is 3 we have to multiply 9 three times, 9x9x9 = 729 which means 9³ = 729.

Hope this helps

Jackson bought 5 ounces of raisins for $4. How much could he have buy for 1$?
Yuliya22 [10]
If you do 5 divide by 4 then you can find what 1$ would be worth so ie.
5 divide by 4 is 1.25 which means that for 1$ you could buy 1.25 ounces

Pentagon PQRST and its reflection, pentagon P'Q'R'S'T', are shown in the coordinate plane below:
Ad libitum [116K]
<span>I have graphed the given coordinates of both pentagons. The reflection was across the y-axis where coordinates of Pentagon PQRST (-x,y) resulted to Pentagon P'Q'R'S'T' (x,y). The line of reflection between the pentagons was x = 0. Line of reflection is the midway between the pre-image and its reflection.</span>
