Answer:

y = -4/3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the slope. Since we know that a line perpendicular to another is it's opposite reciprocal, or the product of the two is equal to -1, we can find the slope. -4/3 times 3/4 is -1, so -4/3 would be the slope of this line.

2. Plug in the point and slope into the slope-point equation. The equation would be y - 2 = -4/3 * (x + 6).

3. Simplify. The simplified equation would be y = -4/3x - 6.

Answer: y = -4/3x - 6

Robert was using a bucket that holds 243.5 ounces (oz) of water when full. The bucket loses 0.3 oz of water per second. After 20

Answer:

237.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the bucket loses 0.3 oz of water per second, and 20 secs passed, you would have to multiply 0.3 and 20 to find out how much water leaked. And 0.3x20=6, so then, we would have to subtract 234.5 and 6 to find out how much water there is left in the bucket. 234.5-6=237.5

So 237.5 is your answer
