Find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to 4y-3x=1 and passes through point (-7,0).

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

-4/3x + -28/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First you rearrange 4y-3x=1

y= 3/4x +1/4

then you reciprocate and change the sign the slope since you are trying to find a line perpendicular to it.

Slope(m) =-4/3

then you use the formula y-y1= m(x-x1)

y-0= -4/3 (x--7)

y= -4/3 +-28/3

Adante begins to evaluate the expression 3 1/3 * 5 1/4

goldenfox [79]

For this case we must find the product of two mixed numbers:

$3 \frac {1} {3} = 3 + \frac {1} {3} = \frac {9 + 1} {3} = \frac {10} {3}\\5 \frac {1} {4} = 5 + \frac {1} {4} = \frac {20 + 1} {4} = \frac {21} {4}$

So, we have:

$\frac {10} {3} * \frac {21} {4} = \frac {10 * 21} {3 * 4} = \frac {210} {12} = \frac {105} {6} = \frac {35} {2}$

If we go to a mixed number we have:

$\frac {35} {2} = 17 \frac {1} {2}$

Answer:

$17 \frac {1} {2}$
