What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x + y = 4?

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First step to determine what's the slope of a perpendicular is to know the slope of the line we're referring to.

What's the slope of 3x + y = 4?

The slope is given by the factor of the variable x... so in this case the slope is 3, which is a positive slope, the line is going up.

To have another line crossing that one with a 90 degrees angle, it would have to be with a negative slope.  

The slope angle would also to be inverted... so from 3 would go to 1/3.

In a shortcut, to find a perpendicular slope to m (the original slope), you do -1/m.

So the slope of the perpendicular would be -1/3.

The value of p from the given equation is 136.

The given equation is p/4 - 15 = 19.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

The given equation is solved as follows:

Transpose -15 to other side of the given equation

That is, p/4 = 19+15

⇒ p/4 = 34

Cross multiply 4 to 34

We get p = 34 × 4

⇒ p = 136

Therefore, the value of p from the given equation is 136.

Hasil dari 64^5/6 + 27^2/3 - 81^3/4 adalah<br>tolong bantuannya kakak kakak<br>​

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the indicinal expression 64^5/6 + 27^2/3 - 81^3/4

According to indices;

a^{m/n} = (\sqrt[n]{a}) ^m

Applying this to the question

64^{5/6} \\= (\sqrt[6]{64}) ^5\\= 2^5= 32

Similarly

27^{2/3}\\= (\sqrt[3]{27}) ^2\\= 3^2\\= 9\\

Also;

81^{3/4}\\= (\sqrt[4]{81}) ^3\\= 3^3\\= 27

Substitute inti the original equation

64^5/6 + 27^2/3 - 81^3/4

= 32 + 9- 27

= 41 - 27

= 14

Hence the required answer is 14
