Answer:  y=\frac{1}{4}x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular slope of the line(m) = -\frac{1}{m}:

  • m = -4 ⇒ -\frac{1}{m} =-\frac{1}{(-4)} =\frac{1}{4}

The function formula is y = mx + b, where the y-intercept(b) is found by substituting in the values of a point on the line ⇒ (4, -6):

y=\frac{1}{4}x+b\\-6=\frac{1}{4}(4)+b\\-6=1+b\\b=-6-1=-7

<u>So the perpendicular equation is </u>y=\frac{1}{4}x-7<u>.</u>

|a|-3/4=-5/8 Solve and show your work?
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

{-1/8, 1/8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve |a|-3/4=-5/8 for |a|:  Add 3/4 to both sides of this equation, obtaining:

|a| - 6/8 + 6/8 = -5/8 + 6/8, or |a| = 1/8.  This absolute value function has two components:

a = 1/8 and a = -1/8.
