Equation for the line perpendicular to the line -6x-7y=-6 having the same y-intercept as 8x-5y=10

Solving   <span>8x-5y=10   for y helps us to identify the y-intercept:

-5y = -8x + 10.  Dividing both sides by -5, we get (8/5)x -2.  Therefore, y = (8/5)x - 2; the y-intercept is (0,-2).

The equation  </span><span>-6x-7y=-6   can be solved for its slope in the same manner.
7y = -6x + 6;  then y = (-6/7)x + 6/7.  Its slope is -7/6.  A line perpendicular to this line has slope equal to the negative reciprocal of -7/6,  which is 6/7.

So, using the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b becomes y = (6/7)x -2.</span>

Which is a solution for the equation y = 4x + 3?
yanalaym [24]
Point are set up (x,y) you sub the number for x into the equation and see if you get the number for y.
y=4x+3
y=4 (5)+3
y=20+3
y=23
so A isn't the answer

y=4 (17)+3
y=68+3
y=71
B isn't the answer

y=4 (4)+3
y=16+3
y=19
and because 4 is the x value for c and d and there can only be 1 y value for each x you're answer is C because when x=4 y =19 or (4,19)

To equation solve 8 = h/-3 +19
Naya [18.7K]
8h/3+19
Move all terms to the left
8-(h/3+19)=0
Get rid of parentheses
-h/3-19+8=0
Multiply all terms by denominator
-h-19*3+8*3=0
Add all numbers and variables together
-1h-33=0
Move all terms containing h to the left all other terms to the right
-h=33
h=33/-1
h=-33
