Answer:

y=\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{16}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Arranging the given equation in slope-intercept form ( y = mx + b ):

y+1=-3(x-5)\\y+1=-3x+15\\y=-3x+15-1\\y=-3x+14

<em>We know that the perpendicular line would have a slope (m) that is </em><em>negative reciprocal </em><em>of this (\frac{1}{3}). Thus we can write the perpendicular line's equation as  y=\frac{1}{3}x+b. </em>

<em />

<em>Now putting x = 4 and y = -6 into the equation, we can solve for b:</em>

<em>y=\frac{1}{3}x+b\\-6=\frac{1}{3}(4)+b\\-6=\frac{4}{3}+b\\b=-6-\frac{4}{3}\\b=-\frac{16}{3}</em>

<em />

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular line is  y=\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{16}{3}

Answer:

y = 3/4x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope its rise over run and you go up 3 and run 4 to get 3/4. then you just look on the y axis and see that the line passes 2. so that is the answer

Answer:

B. DC = 29 and DE = 44.5

Step-by-step explanation:

  • DC = AB
  • 29 = 29

I honestly don't know how to get DE but because DC has to be 29, the second option is the only right answer
