What is the solution to 2x-8<12

$\blue\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer and How to Solve:-}}}}$

First, add 8 on both sides:-

2x<12+8

2x<20

Divide by 2 on both sides:-

x<10 (Option C)

So the numbers less than 10 will make this inequality true.

Write an equation of the line passing through point P(−8, 0) that is perpendicular to the line 3x−5y = 6.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

y = -5/3 * x - 40/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular line has an opposite and a reciprocal of the slope.

Your equation should be:

-5y = -3x +6

Divide all parts by -5.

y = 3/5x - 6/5

Since the perpendicular line has an opposite and a reciprocal of the slope, the slope will be -5/3.

Now you must make an equation in point-slope form. This is an example of that form. You will need at least one point to make this equation work. In this case we have (-8,0).

In put the y and x coordinates like this:

y - 0 = -5/3(x - (-8)

Start solving the equation.

y - 0 = -5/3(x + 8)

y - 0 = -5/3 * x - 40/3

y = -5/3 * x - 40/3

This is your equation.

y = -5/3 * x - 40/3

(You can make it -5/3x in your answer but it looks weird online. You may think that it is -5 divided by 3 times x, but it actually is 5/3 times x. That's why I wrote it as y = -5/3 * x - 40/3)
