Start off by distributing the numbers into the parentheses:
5(-3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13
-15x - 10 - (x - 3) = -16x - 20 + 13
(Note: It's super important to be careful when opening up negative parentheses! -(x-3) is not just - x - 3, it is actually -x + 3 since the negative is distributed in every number!)
-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13
-16x - 7 = -16x - 7
-16x = -16x
0 = 0
There is an infinite number of solutions in this equation.
(When you get 0=0 when solving for a variable, that means that said variable will have infinite solutions, that is, any number plugged into the equation will work)
First we have to find the slope of the givent line and for that we use rise / run method .
The points are (-4,4),(4,-2)
Here rise is
And run is
So slope is
And the slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocal of each other .
Therefore the slope of the required perpendicular line is
Now we use slope intercept form, and put x intercept , that is (6,0) and the slope that is 4/3 ,
Therefore required equation is
Correct option is the third option .

Answer:
m=2/3, b=12
Step-by-step explanation:
When you see an equation in this format, it's called slope-intercept form (y=mx+b, with m being slope and b being y-intercept). So in this case, by looking at our formula, we can tell right away that our slope, or m, is 2/3 and our y-intercept, or b, is 12. HTH :)
