Let's solve for x the following question:

3/4 (x - 16) = 5/4 (2x - 32)

As I told you on the previous exercise:

Step 1: Solve the parenthesis

3/4 x - 48/4 = 10/4 x - 160/4

Step 2: Like terms

3/4x - 10/4x = -160/4 + 48/4

-7/4x = -112/4

Step 3: Simplifying

-7/4x = -28

Step 4: Multiplying by 4 at both sides:

-7/4x * 4 = -28 * 4

-7x = -112

-7x/-7 = -112/-7

x = 16

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-7, -7) and (-7, 1) ?

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

(-7, -7) and (-7, 1)

To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Plug in these values:

(1 - (-7)) / (-7 - (-7))

Simplify the parentheses.

= (1 + 7) / (-7 + 7)

Simplify the fraction.

8/0

= undefined

Our line is a vertical line, which has an undefined slope.

Hope this helps!
