Answer:

m = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x-4

This is in slope intercept form

y = mx+b m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 3 and the y intercept is -4

We want the slope of a line that is perpendicular

Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

Let m be the slope of the line that is perpendicular

3 * m = -1

Divide each side by 3

3m/3 = -1/3

m = -1/3

Evaluate the expression, if x = 9, y = 3, and z = 5. z2 • (x-y)

Bad White [126]

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\mathsf{z^2 \times (x - y)}$

$\mathsf{= 5^2 \times (9 - 3)}$

$\mathsf{= 5 \times 5 \times (9 - 3)}$

$\mathsf{= \bold{25}\times(9 - 3)}$

$\mathsf{= 25\times \bf 6}$

$\mathsf{= \bf 150}$

$\huge\text{Therefore, your answer should be: }$

$\huge\boxed{\frak{150}}\huge\checkmark$
