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).
X-ounces of an oil blend,
y - ounces of glycerin
x + y = 4 ⇒ y = 4 - x
1.5 x + y = 5.50
1.5 x + 4 - x = 5.50
0.5 x = 5.50 - 4
0.5 x = 1.50
x = 3
y = 4 - 3 = 1
There are 3 ounces of an oil blend and 1 ounce of glycerin.
Answer:
Focus of a Parabola. A parabola is set of all points in a plane which are an equal distance away from a given point and given line. The point is called the focus of the parabola and the line is called the directrix. The focus lies on the axis of symmetry of the parabola.

M = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Call (3,-4) one point
Call (-2,5) the second point.
m = (5- -4) / (-2 - 3)
m = 9/-5 = - 9 / 5
