write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that is perpendicular to y=-1/4x+2 and passes through the points (-4,3)

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:

m1*m2=-1, and in this case:

-m/4=-1

-m=-4

m=4, so the slope of the perpendicular line is 4 so we have thus far:

y=4x+b, using point (-4,3) we can solve for the y-intercept, "b"

3=4(-4)+b

3=-16+b

19=b, so our line is:

y=4x+19

Cristina bought a bag of coffee for $8.47. The weight of the bag was 7/8 of a pound. What was the price, per pound, of the coffe

SpyIntel [72]

~For this problem, you need to divide.
~The easy way that I think might help you is if you change the fraction into a decimal.

$\frac{7}{8} = 0.875$

Now divide $8.47 by 0.875
$\frac{8.47}{0.875} = 9.68$

The price per pound of the coffee was $9.68
