The linear equation that is perpendicular to the line x+3y=21 is:
y = 3*x - 6
<h3>How to find the equation of the line?</h3>
A general line in the slope-intercept form is written as:
y = m*x + b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Two linear equations are perpendicular if the product between the two slopes is equal to -1.
Rewriting the given line we can get:
x +3y = 21
3y = 21 - x
y = 21/3 - x/3
y = (-1/3)*x + 21/3
Then the slope is (-1/3), if our line is perpendicular to this one, then:
m*(-1/3) = -1
m = 3
our line is:
y = 3*x + b
To find the value of b, we use the fact that our line passes through (1, - 3)
-3 = 3*1 + b
-3 - 3 = b
-6 = b
The line is y = 3*x - 6

Answer:
The player with the most runs had a rush of 1,240 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of yards that was rushed by one of two person given their combined run and an extra information.
Firstly, let the person that had the smaller number of rush have a rush of x rushes. The second person has a rush of 4 times the other. This makes a number of 4x rushes
By adding both together, we have a total of 1550 yards
Mathematically, this means that x + 4x = 1550
5x = 1550
x = 1550/5 = 310 rushes
The second player had a rush of 4x and that is 4 * 310 = 1,240 rushes
There is no solution is the answer. I had this in one of my math tests so I'm positive it's correct :D
