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

A pie was cut into two equal pieces. Each of the pieces of pie was cut into halves again, and each of those smaller pieces was c
Verdich [7]

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

If you cut a whole pie into two you get two (2) ½ pieces

1 ÷ 2 = ½

When you cut the two ½ pieces into two you get four (4) ¼ pieces;

½ ÷ 2 = ¼

When you cut the four ¼ pieces into two you get 8 1/8 pieces;

¼ ÷ 2 = ¹/8

Therefore the whole pie at this point is made up of 8 ¹/8 pieces. When two (2) of these pieces are eaten we are left with 6 ¹/8 pieces;

8 – 2 = 6

The portion of the pie left therefore is;

6 * ¹/8 pieces

= ⁶/8

= ³/4

If Eli showed a 8.9% ROI on his $8000.00 investment, how much was his return on his investment
telo118 [61]
8.9% is equal to 0.089 because a percent is over a 100. So, you can just multiply the ROI by the investment to get:

0.089(8000) = 712

Your answer is: $712.
