Theres information missing in the question. There should be one more pair of coordinates
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
33769/181
Discussion:
Each term contains "x" so factoring it out gives
x( 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17) = 71 (*)
Use common factor (17*14*4 = 952) as the denominator to combine terms:
1/4 = (17*14)/ 952 = 238/952
1/14 = (17*4)/952 = 68/952
1/17 = (14*4)/952 = 56/952
so 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17 = (238 + 68 + 56)/ 952 = 362/952 = 181/476
Substituting in (*) gives
x ( 181/476) = 71 => multiply both sides by 476/181
x = (71 * 476)/181 => 71* 476 =33769
x = 33769/181
Thank you,

(3,0)(0,4)
slope = (4 - 0) / (0 - 3) = -4/3
A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. So our perpendicular line has a slope of 3/4
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/4
(-6,-5)....x = -6 and y = -5
now sub into the formula and find b, the y int
-5 = 3/4(-6) + b
-5 = -18/4 + b
-5 + 18/4 = b
-20/4 + 18/4 = b
-2/4 = b
so ur perpendicular line is : y = 3/4x - 2/4....or 3x - 4y = 2
and ur point (6,4) lies on the perpendicular line <===
Answer:
now lemme answer this. u did the same to me.. came to my question and answered wrong i mean nothing.
