Answer:

4y - 3x = -25

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point-slope form is expressed as

y - y0 = m(x - x0)

(x0, y0) is the point

m is the slope

Given

(x0, y0) = (3, -4)

Also given the equation;

8x + 6y = 15

Rewrite in standard form;

6y = -8x+15

y = -8/6 x + 15/6

y = -4/3 x + 5/2

Slope m = -4/3

Since the required line is perpendicular to the given line =,

Slope = -1/(-4/3) = 3/4

Substitute into the formula;

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

y + 4 = 3/4(x-3)

4(y+4) = 3(x-3)

4y + 16 = 3x - 9

4y - 3x = -9-16

4y - 3x = -25

This gives the required equation

X divided by 8=1.5 divided by 2<br><br> solve for "x"
Travka [436]
1. 1,5 divided by 2 is 0,75 so on the right side its 0,75

2. We make x/8 = 0,75 | *8

so we get: x = 0,75 * 8

which is the same as x = 6

so the answer is x = 6

The function f(x) = 20(3)^x represents the growth of a fish population every year in a local lake. Jesse wants to manipulate the
valentina_108 [34]
We need the exponents law

a^{bx}=(a^b)^x
So if 
a=3
b=1/2

then
3^{1/2*x}=(3^{1/2})^x
where x represent every half a year.
