Answer:

-1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line through the points

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (-4-8)/(1-3)

     = -12/-2

      =6

Now we need to find the slope of the line that is perpendicular

Perpendicular lines multiply to -1

6 * mp = -1

mp = -1/6

using the coordinate plane shown below 1/3 point is plotted five units to the right of -4, for where should a four point be plan
Mrac [35]

we know that

the fourth point is plotted 5 units to the right of (-4,4)

so

the coordinate x of the fourth point is equal to

-4+5=1

the y-coordinate of the fourth point is the same y coordinate of (-4,4)

therefore

the coordinates of the fourth point is (1,4)

3a+11=7a-13 with shown work​
DaniilM [7]

3a+11=7a-13

move 7a to the other side

sign changes from +7a to -7a

3a-7a+11= 7a-7a-13( combine like terms)

3a-7a+11= -13

-4a+11= -13

move 11 to the other side

sign changes from +11 to -11

-4a+11-11= -13-11

-4a= -13-11

-4a= -24

divide both sides by -4 to get a by itself

-4a/-4= -24/-4

Answer: a= 6
