The perpendicular line will have an equation of y=3/4x-3/4
To find this, we first have to solve our equation for slope intercept form.
8x + 6y = -5 ----> subtract 8x
6y = -8x + -5 ----> divide by 6
y = -4/3x - 5/6.
So we know the slope of this equation to be -4/3. Since perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes, we know we can simply flip the fraction and make it a negative to get the new slope of 3/4. Since B is the only option with that slope, we know it to be the correct answer.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, a² + b² = c², we can solve for 'c'.
We know the length of sides 'a' and 'b', and this is all we really need to know. The angle value of angle 'c' is irrelevant to finding the length of side 'c' (which I'm assuming is the hypotenuse).
18² + 24² = c².
324 + 576 = c².
900 = c². Now find the square root of 900 to get the value of 'c'.
30 = c. <= And there is your answer.
Answer:
m=y/x
Step-by-step explanation:
For first pound it is = $2.41
For next six, = 0.41 * 6 = $2.46
Remaining = 7.99 - (2.41 + 2.46) = 7.99 - 4.87 = 3.12
Now, additional pounds = 3.12 / 0.39 = 8
Total weight = 1 + 6 + 8 = 15
In short, Your Answer would be 15 pounds
Hope this helps!
