Answer:
B)5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
"3x + 5y = 15."
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
The slope-intercept form is
y=mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
y=mx+b
Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation.
5y=15−3x
Divide each term by "5" and simplify.
5y/5=15/5−3x/5
"5" and "5" cancel each other out
Divide 15 by 5
y=3-3x/5
Reorder 3 and −3x/5
y=-3x/5+3
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
y=−3/5x+3
Slope:-3/5
The equation of a perpendicular line to y=−3x/5+3 must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.
<em>m</em>perpendicular=−1/(−3/5)
Simplify the result.
mperpendicular=5/3

Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2-x)+13=2x+3
distribute the 4.
8 - 4x + 13 = 2x + 3
combine like terms.
21 - 4x = 2x + 3
18 = 6x
divide by 6.
x = 3
check.
4(2 - 3) + 13 = 2(3) + 3
4(-1) + 13 = 6 + 3
-4 + 13 = 9
9 = 9
correct!
