Answer:

The third option, y=(-1/3)x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a line perpendicular to an equation, you find the negative reciprocal of the slope. For instance, if you have an equation y=4x+5, the negative reciprocal is y=(-1/4)x+5. That is the equation to find a line perpendicular to this.

If you want to find a line parallel to the equation y=4x+5, all you have to do is come up with another equation that has the same slope. So, y=4x+8 would be a line parallel to the equation y=4x+5.

How do u solve x-y=3<br> 6x+4y=13
earnstyle [38]
X - y = 3
6x + 4y = 13

x = y + 3

6(y + 3) + 4y = 13
6y + 18 + 4y = 13
10y = 13 - 18
10y = - 5
y = - 5/10
y = - 1/2

x = - 1/2 + 3
x = - 1/2 + 6/2
x = 5/2
