We need to write an expression to solve this problem. We do as follows:

(1 - .85)x = 75
x = 75 / (1-.85)
x = 75 / .15
x = 500

Therefore, the original price of the machine would be 500. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Which equation represents a line that passes through (4,1/3) and has a slope of 3/4?
scoray [572]

Step-by-step explanation:

With this kind of problem, we're looking at an equation in the form

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

(m = slope)

so we can substitute m, y1, and x1 with the values we're given.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1/3 = 3/4(x - 4)

Answer:

y - 1/3 = 3/4(x - 4)

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (2, 4 and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3y = 6x 3
Maru [420]
Perpendicular line always have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.  Mathematically,

m1*m2=-1

So to be perpendicular to the line given, let's rearrange it to the point slope form of a line...

3y=6x ?3 (not sure what you wanted to type there)

anyway isolating y by dividing both side by three will leave 2x where 2 is the slope.

So for the other line to be perpendicular, m*2=-1, m=-1/2, now we have:

y=-x/2 +b, we can now you the point given to solve for b

4=-2/2 +b

4=-1+b

b=5 so

y=-x/2 +5 or more neatly

y=(10-x)/2
