The slope of the given line is -4/5.  The line perpendicular to that line will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal.  In other words, the perpendicular slope will be 5/4.  If it passes through (4, 12), we have an x and a y value to use in y=mx+b.  y is 12, x is 4, and we have a slope of 5/4.  Filling in accordingly: 12= \frac{5}{4}(4)+b and 12 = 5 + b.  So b = 7.  Rewriting with our new slope and b value, y= \frac{5}{4}x+7.  And there you go!

C.

An angle bisector splits angles into halves thus resulting in PNQ. The total angle is however twice the PNQ so 4x + 2.

Hope this helps.

If x + y = 6, then solve for y to get: y = 6 - x.

Now replace y with 6 - x in both equations.

(5x)/3 + 6 - x = c

2(6 - x) = c - 4x

The upper equation is solved for c.
Now we solve the lower equation for c.

c = 2(6 - x) + 4x

c = 12 - 2x + 4x

c = 2x + 12

Since we have two equations solved for c, we substitute to get

(5x)/3 + 6 - x = 2x + 12

This is an equation in only x, so we can solve for x.

(5x)/3 - 3x = 6

5x - 9x = 18

-4x = 18

x = -9/2

Now we solve for y.

x + y = 6

-9/2 + y = 6

y = 9/2 + 12/2

y = 21/2

Now we solve for c.

c = (5x)/3 + y

c = (5 * (-9/2))/3 + 21/2

c = -45/6 + 21/2

c = -15/2 + 21/2

c = 6/2

c = 3

Answer: c = 3

Dado :

Miguel a cada 45 minutos

Nádia a cada 60 minutos

Número de horas que eles vão se ver no mesmo lugar:

Para fazer isso ;

Obtenha o menor múltiplo comum de 60 e 45

Múltiplos de:

45: 45, 90, 135, 180, 225.

60: 60, 120, 180, 240, 300.

O menor múltiplo comum de 45 e 60 é 180

° Assim, eles se verão no mesmo lugar após 180 minutos;

Número de horas = 180/60 = 3 horas
