Answer:

  y = 7/3x +13/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the given line is in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), so we can see the slope (m) is -3/7. The slope of the perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal of this, so is ...

  m = -1/(-3/7) = 7/3

The y-intercept of the perpendicular line can be found from ...

  b = y -mx

  b = -5 -(7/3)(-4) = -15/3 +28/3 = 13/3

Then the slope-intercept equation of the perpendicular line is ...

  y = mx +b

  y = 7/3x +13/3

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

You can get there a little faster using the point-slope form of the equation of a line. For slope m and point (h, k) that form is ...

  y -k = m(x -h)

For our perpendicular line, the equation is ...

  y +5 = 7/3(x +4)

Can someone please help me with this????<br> Thanks

Answer:

A (I believe)

Step-by-step explanation:

since the part with the triangle is 6 yards, and it looks about half of that whole side, I'm going to assume that that side is 12 yards, and since it's a square each side will be the same length. so multiply 12 and 12 to get 144.

Now divide that by four so you can get the area of a fourth of the square and find the area of the triangle. 144 ÷ 4 = 36

Now divide 36 by 2 to get the area of the little triangle. 36 ÷ 2 = 18

Now divide 18 by 6 to get x. 18 ÷ 6 = 3

In conclusion, the answer should be A.

Hope this helped!!! :3
