Find the equation of the line that is perpendicluar to y=-2/3x and contains the point (4,-8)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of two perpendiculars is
m1*m2 = - 1
m1 = - 2/3
-2/3 * m2 = -1 Multiply both sides by -3/2
-3/2 * -2/3 * m2 = -1*-3/2
m2 = 3/2
So far what you have is
y = 3/2 x + b
x = 4
y = - 8
-8 = 3/2*4 + b
-8 = 6 + b Subtract 6 from both sides
b = - 14
Complete line
y = 3/2 x - 14
The red line is y = -2/3x
The blue line is y = 3/2x - 14
The point (4,-8) is marked for you

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common ratio between consecutive terms
r = 24 ÷ 16 = 36 ÷ 24 = 54 ÷ 36 = 1.5 =
This indicates the sequence is geometric with nth term ( explicit formula )
f(n) = a₁
where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio
Here a₁ = 16 and r = , then
f(n) = 16 → C
The answer is 1.12% decrease
