What is the y-intercept of the line perpendicular to the line y = 3/4x + 3 that includes the point (-3, -3)

A perpendicular line has an opposite reciprocal slope. This means that the new line will have a slope of -4/3x. Plug in x and y into the equation y=Mx +b where m is the slope (-4/3):
-3=(-3/4)(-3) + b
and isolate b:
b-3=(-3/4)(-3)
b=(-3/4)(-3) +3
b=9/4+3
b=21/4

The final equation is y= -4/3x + 21/4
The y intercept is (21/4).

Answer:

The choose B. x = 7 , x = – 15

(x+4)-5=6

x +4-5=6 —> x=6-4+5 —> x= 7

– (x+4)-5=6 —> -x -4-5=6—> x = -4 -5 -6 —> x = – 15

I hope I helped you^_^

At a sale this week, a desk is being sold for $336. This is a 36% discount from the original price.

8090 [49]

Answer:

$525

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the original price by using the formula x - 0.36x = 336, where x is the original price, 0.36 is the discount percentage (converted to decimal form), and 336 is the total amount paid after the discount is applied:

$x-0.36x=336\\0.64x=336\\x=525$

To check and further understand why the formula works, we can simply apply the discount to the original price and subtract the number from the original price:

525 * 0.36 = 189

525 - 189 = 336

Modeling the first formula gives us:

525 - (0.36 * 525) = 336

525 - 189 = 336

A company sells t-shirts for $6 each. They also charge a one-time processing fee of $3 per order. Jamie ordered t-shirts and pai

jenyasd209 [6]

$45-$3
you would do this to take out the processing fee.
$42/ $6
this is because each shirt cost $6
the equation would be (45-3) / 6= 7]
your answer would be 7 shirts
