What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (6,0) and is perpendicular to the line 3x+4y=20

Mathematics

My name is Ann [436]3 years ago

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 4/3x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we first have to find the slope of the original line. We do this by solving for y.

3x + 4y = 20

4y = -3x + 20

y = -3/4x + 5

Now that we have the slope of -3/4 we can find the perpendicular slope. The perpendicular slope of any time is the opposite and reciprocal slope. So we flip -3/4 to get -4/3 and then we make it positive (4/3). Now that we have our new slope, we can input it along with the point into point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 0 = 4/3(x - 6)

y = 4/3x - 8

MrRa [10]
Let's factor this down

36 miles in 45 minutes

It is also 12 miles in 15 minutes.

Then it can be 48 miles in an hour

On a coordinate plane, A line is drawn from point Fernando to point Maria. Fountain is labeled in between the 2. Fernando is at
agasfer [191]

The location of the fountain as described in the task content is; (-1, -0.5).

<h3>What is the location of the Fountain?</h3>

According to the task content, the locations of Fernando and Maria are given as; (-4, -2) and (4,2) respectively and the ratio of division is expected to be; 5: 3.

Hence, the coordinates of the fountain can be evaluated as;

x = (4) - (4-(-4)) × (5/8) = -1.

y = 2 - (2-(-2)) × (5/8) = -0.5

Hence, it follows that the coordinates of the fountain location is; (-1, -0.5) since the fountain is closer to Fernando than Maria.
