Answer:
c) 6x - 5y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form of a linear equation: 
(where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)
Maria's line: 
Therefore, the slope of Maria's line is 
If two lines are perpendicular to each other, the product of their slopes will be -1.
Therefore, the slope of Nate's line (m) is:

Therefore, the linear equation of Nate's line is:

Rearranging this to standard form:



Therefore, <u>option c</u> could be an equation for Nate's line.
Answer:
You can use Gaussian Elimination.
Double both sides of the first equation and add the second equation.
6x + 4y = 8
5x - 4y = 3
---------------
11x = 11
x = 1
5 - 4y = 3
-4y = -2
y = 1/2
