Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

You write the question as such: 5/9 divided by 2/3.

After that, you keep the first fraction, flip the sign and the fraction.

You will get: 5/9 multiplied by 3/2.

When you get this, you then cross multiply and simplify as such.

5/3 multiplied by 1/2.

5/6 would be your solution.

Answer:

$y=\frac{7}{2}x-20$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the line be $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ where, 'm' is its slope and $(x_1,y_1)$ is a point on it.

Given:

The equation of a known line is:

$y=-\frac{2}{7}x+9$

A point on the unknown line is:

$(x_1,y_1)=(4,-6)$

Both the lines are perpendicular to each other.

Now, the slope of the known line is given by the coefficient of 'x'. Therefore, the slope of the known line is $m_1=-\frac{2}{7}$

When two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is equal to -1.

Therefore,

$m\cdot m_1=-1\\m=-\frac{1}{m_1}\\m=-\frac{1}{\frac{-2}{7} }=\frac{7}{2}$

Therefore, the equation of the unknown line is determined by plugging in all the given values. This gives,

$y-(-6))=\frac{7}{2}(x-4)\\y+6=\frac{7}{2}x-14\\y=\frac{7}{2}x-14-6\\\\y=\frac{7}{2}x-20$

The equation of a line perpendicular to the given line and passing through (4, -6) is $y=\frac{7}{2}x-20$ .
