Answer: -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

I wrote the equation y-3=3/2(x-4) in slope-intercept form. It's y=3/2x-5, so the slope is 3/2.

To find the perpendicular slope, I found the opposite reciprocal. The reciprocal of 3/2 is 2/3 and the opposite of 2/3 is -2/3

Answer:

y = (1/4)x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.  Here we are told that the line passes through (-8, -5) and that its slope is 1/4 (is that correct?).  

Substituting -5 for y, -8 for x and 1/4 for m, we get an equation for the y-intercept, b:

-5 = (1/4)(-8) + b, or

-5 = -2 + b, so b = -3, and the desired equation is

y = (1/4)x - 3

3х2 = 147<br> Solve by undoing
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer: +/- 7

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² = 147

To solve for x divide through by three first.

3x² = 147

x² = 49, now we take the square root of both side by trying to apply laws of indices.

√x² = √49

The square root will neutralize the effect of the square because

√a = a¹/² so (x²)¹/², and (x²)¹/² =

x²×¹/² = x, therefore the solution is

x = +/- 7.
