Question

PLEASE HELP Will give Medal! ;)
Which is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to 8x=6y=-5
A) y=2/3x-3/4
B) y=3/4x-3/4
C) y=4x+6
D) y=6x-4

Answer 1

8x + 6y = -5 , is that the equation?

Answer 2

yes it is

Answer 3

ok first solve for y ,

Answer 4

after you solve y = mx + b,
the slope of the perpindicular line will be -1/m

Answer 5

i think it y=-8/6-5 but i dont know im terrible

Answer 6

almost

Answer 7

y=-8/6x-5*

Answer 8

ive been trying to do this on my own but i cant

Answer 9

8x + 6y = -5

6y = -8x -5

y = -8/6x - 5/6

Answer 10

or in lowest terms
y = -4/3x - 5/6

Answer 11

So how do i find the perpendicular line?

Answer 12

after you solve y = mx + b, the slope of the perpindicular line will be -1/m

Answer 13

the negative reciprocal

Answer 14

so the slope would be 3/4x?
