Convert mixed number to improper fraction:

$1\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{1\cdot4+3}{4}=\dfrac{4+3}{4}=\dfrac{7}{4}\\\\4\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{4\cdot6+1}{6}=\dfrac{24+1}{6}=\dfrac{25}{6}\\\\1\dfrac{3}{4}\times4\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{7}{4}\times\dfrac{25}{6}=\dfrac{7\times25}{4\times6}=\dfrac{175}{24}=\dfrac{168+7}{24}=7\dfrac{7}{24}$

First off, let's keep in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, hmmm so what's the slope of y = 2x + 5?

well, notice, that equation is in slope-intercept form, thus $\bf y=\stackrel{slope}{2}x+5$ .

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}}
{2\implies \stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{2}{1}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{\cfrac{1}{2}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{-\cfrac{1}{2}}}$

so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is -1/2 and runs through 1,4.

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad \qquad \qquad 
slope = m\implies -\cfrac{1}{2}
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-4=-\cfrac{1}{2}(x-1)$

Can someone show me the steps to doing this ?

U're goal is to get k alone.
So divide both sides by 9/10.
3/2 divided by 9/10 is 5/3
