solve for x

2/3x - 4 1/2 = -8

The answer is x= -5 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2/3x−4 1/2=−8

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2/3x+−9/2=−8

Step 2: Add 9/2 to both sides.

2/3x+−9/2+9/2=−8+9/2

2/3x=−7/2

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 3/2.

(3/2)*(2/3x)=(3/2)*(−7/2)

x=−21/4

x= −5 1/4

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
