3x - 2y = 7
-2y = -3x + 7
y = 3/2x - 7/2....slope of this line is 3/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So the slope we need is -2/3 (see how I flipped the slope and changed the sign)
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2/3
(-3,-2).....x = -3 and y = -2
now we sub and find b, the y int
-2 = -2/3(-3) = b
-2 = 2 + b
-2 - 2 = b
-4 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -2/3x - 4 <==

Answer:
A. 64 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
In a linear equation, the "unit rate" is generally the coefficient of the variable. The units of the unit rate depend on the definition of the relationship.
Here, the time t is in hours, so the "unit rate" will be <something> per hour. The answer choices suggest that the <something> is "miles". That is, the units of the equation are ...
(miles/hour) × (hours) = miles
With numbers/variables, that is ...
(64 miles/hour) × (t hours) = 384 miles
The unit rate is 64 miles per hour.
