Answer:

Option C -7x-5y=-48

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of AB

we have

A(-3,-1) and B(4,4)

The slope m is equal to

m=(4+1)/(4+3)

m=5/7

step 2

Find the slope of BC

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is equal to -1

so

m1*m2=-1

we have

m1=5/7

substitute

5/7*m2=-1

m2=-7/5

step 3

Find the equation of the line into slope point form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=-7/5

B(4,4)

substitute

y-4=-(7/5)(x-4)

Multiply by 5 both sides

5y-20=-7x+28

7x+5y=28+20

7x+5y=48

Multiply by -1 both sides

-7x-5y=-48

A line with a slope of – 5 passes through the points (6,r) and (7, – 9). What is the value of r?
const2013 [10]

Answer:

r=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient =  \frac{change \: in \: y}{change \: in \: x}  \\  - 5 =  \frac{r -  - 9}{6 - 7}  \\  - 5 =  \frac{r + 9}{ - 1}   \\  - 5 \times  - 1 = r + 9 \\ 5 = r + 9 \\ 5 - 9 = r \\ r =  - 4

Hope that this is helpful.
