Answer:

y = 0.25x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line is 4x + y = 3

or y = -4x + 3

Comparing this with slope-intercept form y = mx + c :

slope of this line is -4

Product of slopes of perpendicular lines = -1

⇒ slope of a line perpendicular to this is \frac{-1}{-4} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25

This line also passes through the point (-4,-6)

The equation of a line having slope m and passing through a point (h,k) is

y - k = m(x - h)

⇒ equation of line perpendicular to given line is y - (-6) = 0.25×{x - (-4)}

⇒ y + 6 = 0.25×(x + 4)

⇒ y + 6 = 0.25x + 1

⇒ <u>y = 0.25x - 5</u>

This is in the slope-intercept form y = mx + c with slope m = 0.25 and y-intercept (0,-5)

ikadub [295]

Answer:

Length of kitchen on blueprint = 4 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale used to draw a blueprint of a house :

6 feet = 1 in.

Therefore, 1 feet = \frac{1}{6} in.

If the length of kitchen = 24 feet

Then the length of kitchen on the blueprint will be

= \frac{1}{6}\times 24

= 4 in.

Therefore, length of kitchen on blueprint is 4 in.
