Determine the slope of a line perpendicular to the line with equation 6x-4y= 30

Mathematics

Start by putting it in slope intercept form.
6x - 4y = 30
6x - 30 = 4y
(6/4)x - 30/4 = y
simplify
(3/2)x - 15/2 = y

A perpendicular line will have a reversed slope. Take the negative reciprocal (flip it over, make negative).
slope of perpendicular line: -2/3

6x - 4y = 30
-4y = -6x + 30
y = 3/2x - 15/2....slope here is 3/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip the slope and change the sign. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of -2/3 (see how I flipped 3/2 making it 2/3...and then changed the sign, making it -2/3)

answer : perpendicular line will have a slope of -2/3.

Jaime has 38 marbles if Jorge had 14 more marbles he would have twice as many as Jaime how many marbles does Jorge have now?
Ganezh [65]

Answer:  Jorge has 62 marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Jaime has 38 marbles if Jorge had 14 more marbles he would have twice as many as Jaime.

We are to find the number of marbles that Jorge has.

Let x and y represents the number of marbles that Jalme and Jorge has respectively.

Then, according to the given information, we have

x=38

and

y+14=2x\\\\\Rightarrow y+14=2\times38\\\\\Rightarrow y+14=76\\\\\Rightarrow y=76-14\\\\\Rightarrow y=62.

Thus, Jorge has 62 marbles.
