Answer:

y=-\dfrac{3}{4}x+11

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line that passes through the point (x_1,y_1) and has the slope of m is

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

In your case, a line passes through the point (8,5) and has a slope of -\frac{3}{4}, so its equation is

y-5=-\dfrac{3}{4}(x-8)\\ \\y-5=-\dfrac{3}{4}x+6\\ \\y=-\dfrac{3}{4}x+11

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point. y-3=-1/5(x+2); (-2
arsen [322]

Answer:

The equation would be B) y = 5x + 17

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, you need to locate the slope of the first equation. Since the slope is the coefficient of x, we know it to be -1/5. Now, the perpendicular slope is the opposite and reciprocal of that, which makes the new slope 5.

Now that we have this, we can use the point and the slope in point-slope form to get the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 7 = 5(x + 2)

y - 7 = 5x + 10

y = 5x + 17

Answer:

≥ and ≤ will both be solid dots, as it includes the number

x ≥ -7 is everything greater than -7; x ≤ 4 is everything less than 4.

to include both, you'd click -7, drag right, and stop at 4
