What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x+5y=4?

5/3 or 1.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the original line

3x+5y=4                Subtract 3x from both sides

5y = - 3x + 4           Divide both sides by 5

y = (-3/5)x + 4

The original line has a slope of - 3/5 or - 0.6

Find the slope of the perpendicular line

m1 * m2 = - 1

m1 = - 3/5

m2 = -1/(-3/5)

m2 = 5/3

The slope of the perpendicular line is

5/3 or 1.67

the system of inequity is

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

the related equation of solid line is .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

the related equation of dashed line is

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be . the required inequality is

similarly, check the second related equation.

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is
