Answer:

The equation is: y = 1/2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of j is -2. The slope of a line perpendicular to line j has a negative inverse: 1/2. The point is (-8, 3).

Use the point slope form of the equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substitute:

y - 3 = 1/2(x - (-8))

y - 3 = 1/2x + 4

y = 1/2x + 4 + 3

y = 1/2x + 7

Proof:

Solve for f(x) when x = -8.

f(x) = 1/2x + 7

f(-8) = 1/2(-8) + 7

= -8/2 + 7

= -4 + 7

= 3, giving the point (-8, 3)

f(x)=3x-23,\ g(x)=-4.5x+7\\\\f(x)=g(x)\iff3x-23=-4.5x+7\qquad\text{add 23 to both sides}\\\\3x=-4.5x+30\qquad\text{add 4.5x to both sides}\\\\7.5x=30\qquad\text{divide both sides by 7.5}\\\\\boxed{x=4}

PLEASE HELP DUE TODAYYYYY

The answer to this is no solution because it is in simplest form. 

3x²-x+1 and 2x²+5x-4 can not be factored anymore. The expression given was in simplest form and could not be factored anymore. A trinomial expression is the form of ax²+bx+c. Factoring trinomials help you to put the equation in simplest form.

I hope this helps!!!!!

I do not understand how to work out this question please help
enot [183]

a) To find the missing side length on triangle A, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + 12^2 = 13^2

a^2 + 144 = 169

a^2 = 25

a = 5 cm

5 and 12 = 5 and 12

b) The two triangles are congruent because they have two side lengths in common. If at least two side lengths are the same on two triangles, then they are congruent. In addition, these triangles have one angle in common as well.

Hope this helps!! :)

Easy question:
Delvig [45]

Answer:

3 hours and 45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

let's assume the tank has a volume of x liters.

let's assume the speed of filling it is x/6 liters per hour for A and x/10 liters per hour for B.

the formula to calculate the time is:

time = volume / speed

If the pumps work together, the total speed is x/6 + x/10, which is 16/60 x

So the time this takes is:

time = x / (16/60 x) = 60/16 hours = 3.75 hours = 3 hours and 45 minutes.
