Answer:
y = -4x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have two lines in slope intercept form as
then the product of the slopes
In other words,
We have the first line as
The slope of this line is
The slope of a perpendicular line will be the negative of the reciprocal of this line
Reciprocal of 1/4 is 4
So slope of perpendicular line is -4 which implies
y = -4x + c
We have to determine c
Since the line passes through (-3, 8), plug in these values for x and y in the equation and solve for c
8 = (-4)(-3) + c
8 = 12 + c
c = -4
So the equation of the perpendicular line is y = -4x - 4 (Answer)
It is always a good idea to plot these graphs and see if they fit the data provided
The attached plot shows the two graphs and you can see they are perpendicular to each other and the perpendicular line(the answer) passes through point (-3,8)
21x + 28 = 156 - 2
21x = 154 - 28
21x/21 = 126/21
X = 6
Answer:
The only possible answer that is correct is the first one, x = -4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the given inequality as much as possible, and then substitute each of the given x values one by one to determine which is in the solution set.
9(2x + 1) < 9x - 18 becomes 18x + 9 < 9x - 18, which, if reduced by dividing all four terms by 9, becomes 2x + 1 < x - 2.
Simplifying further, we get x < - 3. The only possible answer that is correct is the first one, x = -4. -4 < -3 is true.
Answer:
zero(0)
Step-by-step explanation:
The additive identity of a set of number is a number such that the its sum with any of the numbers in the set would give a result that is equal to the number in that set.
In other words, say for example the set of numbers is rational, the additive identity of rational numbers is 0. This is because, given any rational number say <em>x</em>, adding zero to the number <em>x</em> gives the same number <em>x. </em>i.e
x + 0 = x
If x is say 2, then we have;
2 + 0 = 2
Since adding zero to rational numbers gives has no effect on the numbers, then zero (0) is the additive identity of rational numbers.
