Answer:

7x + 3y = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c (m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange - 3x + 7y = 5 into this form by adding 3x to both sides

7y = 3x + 5 ( divide all terms by 7 )

y = \frac{3}{7} x + \frac{5}{7} ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{3}{7}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{\frac{3}{7} } = - \frac{7}{3} , thus

y = - \frac{7}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (5, 3) into the partial equation

3 = - \frac{35}{3} + c ⇒ c = 3 + \frac{35}{3} = \frac{44}{3}

y = - \frac{7}{3} x + \frac{44}{3} ← in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 3

3y = - 7x + 44 ( add 7x to both sides )

7x + 3y = 44 ← in standard form

Answer:

equation: y = -7/3x + 14 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

–3x+7y=5

y = 3/7 x + 5

slope of perpendicular line: - 7/3

y = mx + b for (5 , 3)

b = y - mx = 3 - ((-7/3) * 5) = 3 + 35/3 = 44/3 = 14 2/3

equation: y = -7/3x + 14 2/3

Answer:

a.) 13 students

b.) 53 members

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) In the given equation of y=4x+13, "x" represents how many years have gone by since the club had started. The number "13" in this equation represents the y-intercept, or the value of "y" when x = 0. Therefore, when "x" is 0 years, there were 13 students in the clubs, meaning that the original group that started the club contained 13 students.

b.) Since the question asks how many members that the club will have after their tenth year and you already know that "x" in the equation y=4x+13 represents the number of years since the club started, all you have to do is plug 10 in for "x" in the equation; so, the equation will now look like this: y=4(10)+13. Keeping PEMDAS in mind, you first multiply 4 and 10 to get 40, and then you add 13 to get an answer of 53 members after year 10.
