The equation of a line perpendicular to the line 2x − 5y = 7 is y = (-5/2)x + b

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables or numbers.

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of their slopes is equal to -1.

The slope of the line:

2x - 5y = 7

5y = 2x - 7

y = (2/5)x - 7

The slope of the line 2x - 5y = 7 is 2/5. The slope of the line perpendicular is -5/2

Hence:

The equation of a line perpendicular to the line 2x − 5y = 7 is y = (-5/2)x + b

9. Peter is trying to buy fencing for the perimeter of his garden. His garden is in the shape of a rectangle with a length of 2(
fomenos

Length: 2(x + 6); Width: 3.5x

A rectangle has 4 sides. 2 sides are lengths and 2 sides are widths.

The perimeter is the sum of the measures of all 4 sides.

perimeter = length + length + width + width

perimeter = 2(x + 6) + 2(x + 6) + 3.5x + 3.5x

Use the distributive property on 2(x + 6).

perimeter = 2x + 12 + 2x + 12 + 3.5x + 3.5x

Now let's group all terms with x first, then all the numbers.

perimeter = 2x + 2x + 3.5x + 3.5x + 12 + 12

Now we add like terms. Like terms have exactly the same variables and the same exponents. All terms with x are like terms and can be added together. All terms with no variable are like terms and can be added together.

perimeter = 11x + 24

11x and 24 are not like terms since 11x contains the variable x and 24 has no variable. Since 11x and 24 are not like terms, they cannot be added together. No more simplification can be done, and 11x + 24 is the answer.

Answer: 11x + 24

Which polynomial is a difference of squares?
Svetllana [295]

<u>Answer</u>

D.25x2 – 36


<u>Explanation</u>

A. x² – 16x + 64

product = 64

sum = -16

factors: -8 and -8

x² – 16x + 64  = x² - 8x - 8x + 64

                       = x(x - 8) - 8(x - 8)

                        = (x - 8)(x-8) = (x-8)²      ⇒ Not a difference of squares


B.x² + 4 = (x² + 2²) ⇒ Not a difference of squares


C.9x² – x – 36

product = - 324

sum = -1

Factors: none

9x² – x – 36  ⇒ Has no perfect roots.


D.25x² – 36

25x² – 36 = (5x)² - 6²   ⇒ This is the difference of squares.
