Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is the same as coefficient of x
From the equation
3x+4y=12
Y=(-3/4)x+3
The slope for this eqn is -3/4
For this equation
Px+12y=30
12y=-p+30
Y= (-p/12)x +30/12
The slope is -p/12
To get p
-p/12=-3/4
P=9
You solve this by plugging one equation into the other. Usually you have to rewrite one equation to make this work. In this case I choose to rewrite y-4x=0 as y=4x.
After plugging it into the second, you get:
3x + 6*4x = 9 => 27x = 9 => x=1/3
Putting this solution back into y=4x gives us y=4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
perpendicular slope is negative reciprocal. -1/-1 = 1
y - 4 = x +3
y = x + 7
