<h3>Answer:  C) 4/7</h3>

Explanation:

The given equation is in the form y = mx+b with slope m = -7/4

Take the negative reciprocal of this to get 4/7. We simply flip the fraction and the sign (from negative to positive).

Note that multiplying any original slope with its perpendicular counterpart, will always get you -1

(-7/4)*(4/7) = -1

This applies to lines that are not vertical and not horizontal.

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is -7/4

Let the slope we want be m :

Then m * -7/4 = -1        ( as the slopes of perpendicular lines have  a product of -1)

m = -1 / -7/4

= 1 * 4/7

= 4/7.

A.
I=prt
I=(3800)(.055)(4/12)
I=$69.67

b.
Principal-interest=money received from Bank
3800-69.67=$3730.34

c.
I=prt
69.67=3730.34(r)(4/12)
69.67=1243.45r
69.67/1243.45=1243.45/1243.45r

What is the answer to 11x+4+51+2x+8=180
Digiron [165]
Hi,

Work:

Equation;

11x + 4 + 51 + 2x + 8 = 180

Collect like terms and calculate sum of positive numbers.

13x + 63 = 180

Move constant +63 to the right side and change its sign.

13x = 180 - 63

Subtract numbers.

13x = 117

Divide both sides of equation with 13.

x = 9


Hope this helps.
