Y - 3 = 8/3(x + 2)...the slope here is 8/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -3/8

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -3/8
(-2,3)....x1 = -2 and y1 = 3
now we sub
y - 3 = - 3/8(x - (-2)...not done yet
y - 3 = -3/8(x + 2) <===

Which ordered pair represents the solution to the system of equations? {−5x+7y=−196x−2y=10
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + 7y = -19

6x - 2y = 10

-10x + 14y = -38

42x - 14y = 70

32x = 32

x = 1

-5 + 7y = -19

7y = -14

y = -2

Fast food hamburgers have high amounts of cholesterol. Two McDonald’s Quarter Pounders and three Burger King Whoppers contain a
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

McDonald’s Quarter Pounders = 67 mg of cholesterol

Burger King Whoppers = 87 of cholesterol

Step-by-step explanation:

McDonald’s Quarter Pounders = m

Burger King Whoppers = b

2m + 3b = 395

3m + 1b = 288

3m + b = 288

b = -3m + 288

2m + 3b = 395

2m + 3(-3m + 288) = 395

2m - 9m + 864 = 395

- 7m + 864 = 395

- 7m/7 = -469/7

-m = -67

-m/-1 = -67/-1

m = 67

2m + 3b = 395

2(67) + 3b = 395

134 + 3b = 395

3b = 395 - 134

3b = 261

3b/3 = 261/3

b = 87

Check: m = 67; b = 87

2m + 3b = 395

3m + 1b = 288

2m + 3b = 395

2(67) + 3(87) = 395

134 + 261 = 395

395 = 395

3m + 1b = 288

3(67) + 1(87) = 288

201 + 87 = 288

288 = 288
