The question seems incomplete but that could just be my perception.
The slope of y = -4x is -4 as it's the value just in front of the x value. This equation is in the form y = mx+b where m = -4 and b = 0. The m is the slope.
Anything parallel to y = -4x will also have a slope of -4. Parallel lines have equal slopes (but different y intercepts)
Anything perpendicular to y = -4x will have a slope of 1/4. Notice how multiplying the original slope (-4) and the perpendicular slope (1/4) gets you -1. To go from -4 to 1/4, we flip the fraction and the sign. Think of -4 as -4/1 to flip the fraction to -1/4 and then flip the sign to +1/4 or just 1/4.

Answer:
1200
Step-by-step explanation:
The number who drink coffee is 3/4 of 8000, so ...
... (3/4)×8000 = 6000.
Of those, 1/5 add cream, so the number of coffee drinkers who add cream to their coffee is ...
... (1/5)×6000 = 1200.
_____
<em>Alternate solutions</em>
We have computed ...
... (1/5)×((3/4)×8000) = 1200
Since multiplication is associative, you can multiply the fractions first, if you wish:
... ((1/5)×(3/4))×8000 = (3/20)×8000
... = 24000/20 = 1200
or
... = 3×(8000/20) = 3×400 = 1200
Answer: 9 inches.
Do the pythagorean theorem to find your answer.
Formula: a^2 + b^2 = c2
12 = b
15 = c
a^2 + 12^2 = 15^2
Simplify the equation
a^2 + 144 = 225
Subtract 144 on both sides.
a^2 = 81
Square root of 81 is 9.
