Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: A) Yes, his solution is incorrect.

B) The given equation has 1 solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Here, the given expression is,

5 x = 30

Thus, the steps of solving the given expression are as follow,

Step 1: 5 x = 30

Ste 2 : x=(30)/(5)

Step 3 : x = 6

Hence, by the above explanation,

It is clear that the given steps of the solution are incorrect.

B) Since, x has only one value which is 6,

Hence, the given expression has only one solution.

Answers

y=mx+b
m=slope

perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

the line we have is y=-4/7x+5
therefor
if the slope we are looking for is m
(-4/7)m=-1
times -7/4 both sides
m=7/4
we are looking for
y=7/4x+b
