Answer:

y = -1/3x + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.

The given line is

y = 3x - 1

This equation is written in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope.

slope of given line = m = 3

slope of perpendicular line = -1/3

Now we need the equation of the line with slope -1/3 that passes through the point (-8, 3)

y = mx + b

y = -1/3x + b

3 = (-1/3)(-8) + b

3 = 8/3 + b

9/3 = 8/3 + b

b = 1/3

y = -1/3x + b

y = -1/3x + 1/3

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 9 + 53 = 180 (collect like terms)

8x + 44 = 180 (subtract 44 on both sides)

8x = 136 (divide by 8 on each side)

x = 17
