What is t?

-5y=-x+20

y=1/5 x-4

line perpendicular is

y=-5x +b

need to know t to find b

it somewhat is perpendicular to the line y = (7/5)x – 3/5 (slope is 7/5) So the slope of the line that’s perpendicular to the slope 7/5 would be -5/7. (slope1*slope2 = -a million) so the line would be y = (-5/7)x + c Now you already comprehend it passes via (-4,3), so placed x = -4 and y = 3 interior the above equation and get fee of c. 3 = (-5/7)(-4) + c 3 = 20/7 + c c = 3 – 20/7 = a million/7 so putting the fee of c in that equation: y = (-5/7)x + a million/7 or 7y = -5x + a million or 7y + 5x = a million answer is A.
