Answer:

3x+y=-31

Step-by-step explanation:

$4x - 12y = 2\\12y = 4x-2\\y=\frac{x}{3}-\frac{1}{6}$

Slope of perpendicular line is -3.

$y=-3x+b$

Sub in the point (10, -1)

$-1=-3(10)+b\\-1=30+b\\b=-31\\y=-3x-31\\3x+y=-31$

Answer:

C. -3(√y)(∛x²)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the rule for exponents with fractions. The numerator represents the power the variable is raised by, and the denominator represents the which root will be taken.

y^1/2 equals √y

and x^2/3 equals ∛x²

So the answer is -3(√y)(∛x²)
