Let his total money be x.
He spent (3/7)*x of his money.
He gave 1/4(x-3/7x) to his sister. 
which is : (1/4)*(4/7)*x = (1/7)*x 
Now,
How much money he have in the beginning = 
(3/7)*x+(1/7)*x+120=x
(4/7)*x+120=x
120=x-(4/7)*x
120=(3/7)*x
x=120*7/3 [cross multiplication]
x=280.

So, Alex had $280 in the beginning.

Answer:

y=-8/5x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of perpendicular lines is the opposite reciprocal of the original equation.

To get the opposite reciprocal, flip the fraction and use the opposite sign.

Here, the slope is -8/5 because that is the opposite of 5/8.

To get the equation of the line, use point-slope and then distribute to get the equation in y=mx+b format.

Point slope: y-y1=m(x-x1). Use the coordinate (5,-4) in the equation.

y+4=-8/5(x-5)

Multiply (x-5) by -8/5 and simplify.

y+4=-8/5x+8

y=-8/5x+4
