Slope, found using the points is -55/11 = -5
We use that for the equation y=mx+b where m=-5. Since we also know one of the points, we can plug that in and find b
-12=-5(4)+b
-12=-20+b
8=b
So the equation of the line is y=-5x+8
Answer. C + .07c
Step-by-step explanation:
C is retail. Sales tax of 7% (.07) is added to that retail cost to reach the total sales price
Make them both improper fractions.
77/10 - 19/5
Give them common denominators (multiply the second fraction by 2)
77/10 - 38/10
Subtract
39/10 = 3 9/10
The answer is: " - (4/3) " .

Explanation:
____________________________________
The original equation given has a slope of (3/4).
Note: We know this since the equation for the slope of the line is written in "slope-intercept form" ; also known as: "point-slope form"; that is:
" y = mx + b " ; in which "m" (the coefficient of "x") is the slope.
____________________________________________________
The slope of a line PERPENDICULAR to an equation, when written in "slope-intercept form", is the "negative reciprocal" of the slope of the original line.
Hence, the negative reciprocal of "(3/4)" is: "-(4/3)" .
