Start at -8 move to the left 8 more times,. You get -16.
For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
On the other hand we have that if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1. So:
The given line is:
So we have:
We find
So, a line perpendicular to the one given is of the form:
We substitute the given point to find "b":
Finally we have:
In point-slope form we have:

Answer:
• x = -4, x = 0, x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
x is a factor of all terms, so x=0 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 1 and 5.)
The sum of coefficients is 0, so x=1 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 3 and 4.)
Reversing the sign of the odd-degree terms gives signs of -++, so there is one sign change, hence one negative real root (by Descartes' rule of signs). This confirms choice 2 as the answer.
___
Of course, your graphing calculator can answer this almost as quickly.
4x - 3 = 9
4x = 9 + 3
4x = 12
x = 3
hope that helps, God bless!
