Answer: y+4=-3(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

- The equation of the line in point-slope form is:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Where m is the slope and (x_1,y_1) is a point of the line.

- The equation of the line y=\frac{1}{3}x+4 is written is slope-intercept form, where the slope is \frac{1}{3}.

- By definition, when two lines are perpendicular to each other, the slopes are the negative reciprocals. Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line must be -3.

- Substitute the point P and the slope -3 into the equation in point-slope form, therefore, you obtain:

y+4=-3(x-4)

Write the standard form of the equation y+4=12/7(x-1)
Goshia [24]
This is the eqn of a str line.    <span>y+4=12/7(x-1) would be clearer if written as

</span><span>y+4=(12/7)(x-1).     y+4 = (12/7)x - 12/7.  

Multiply all terms by 7 to remove the fractions:  7(y+4) = 12x - 12.

Complete the multiplication:                            7y + 28 = 12x - 12.

Arrange the x and y terms on the left side and the constants on the right:

-12x + 7y = -40.  This is standard form.  Some people might disagree and say that -12x + 7y + 40 is standard form.  They are equivalent.

You bought 8 gumdrops for 2¢ apiece. For the same amount of money, how many gumdrops can you buy at 8¢ apiece? gumdrops
ser-zykov [4K]
First, how much did you spend on the 8 gumdrops at 2 cents a piece?

8 gumdrops at 2 cents a piece is 16 cents
8 gumdrops x 2 cents = 16 cents

So, if you have 16 cents to spend on gumdrops and they are 8 cents a piece, how many can you buy?
16 / 8 = 2

You can buy 2 gumdrops for the same amount of money.

Noah currently has an account balance of $2,976.45. He opened the account 11 years ago with a deposit of $1,963.45. If the inter
Vesnalui [34]
What we know:
Acct. balance A (11)= $2,976.45
Pricipal=$1,963.45
Compounded (n)=quarterly (4)
rate=r
Compound interest formula: A (t)=p (1+r/n)^nt

What we need toi find:
If the interest compounds quarterly, what is the interest rate on the account? Find r.
A (t)=p (1+r/n)^nt
2976.45=1963.45 (1+r/4)^(4×11)
2976.45=1963.45 (1+r/4)^44
2976.45/1963.45=1963.45/1963.45 (1+r/4)^44
1.5159=(1+r/4)^44
(1.5159)^(1/44)=((1+r/4)^44)^(1/44)

1.0095=1+r/4
1.0095-1=1-1+r/4
.0095=r/4
.0095(4)=r/4 (4)
.038=r

Rate = 3.8%

3x-50 (7x) find the value of x
Naya [18.7K]

x=23

Simplifying

(3x + -50) + (7x)

Reorder the terms:

(-50 + 3x) + (7x)

Remove parenthesis around (-50 + 3x)

-50 + 3x + (7x) =

Combine like terms: 3x + (7x)

-50 + 10x

Solving

-50 + 10x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '50' to each side of the equation.

-50 + 50 + 10x = 180 + 50

Combine like terms: -50 + 50 = 0

0 + 10x = 180 + 50

10x = 180 + 50

Combine like terms: 180 + 50 = 230

10x = 230

Divide each side by '10'.

Simplifying

x = 23
