The exponent 4 needs to be applied to both 3 and x, so we would have:
3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * x^4.
9 * 9 * x^4.
81x^4
<span>Ishaan is 21, Christopher is 7
No actual question given, but I will assume that the question is "How old are they?". If that's the case, we can create two equations. I'll use I for Ishaan's age and C for Christopher's. I will also assume that there's been some formatting issues here and for some reason, numbers are repeated 3 times without any spaces. So
"Ishaan is 3 times as old as Christopher"
I = 3C
"is also 14 years older than Christopher
I = C + 14
Since both equations are equal to each other, let's set them equal. So
3C = C + 14
2C = 14
C = 7
So Christopher is 7. And we can use the equation I = C + 14 to get Ishaan's age. So
I = C + 14
I = 7 + 14
I = 21</span>
X + 5y = 6
5y = -x + 6
y = -1/5x + 6/5....the slope here is -1/5. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip the original slope and change the sign. So we flip -1/5 and make is -5/1....and we change the sign...making it 5/1 or just 5. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of 5.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 5
(2,-2)...x = 2 and y = -2
sub and find b, the y int
-2 = 5(2) + b
-2 = 10 + b
-2 - 10 = b
-12 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 5x - 12 <=
