8x + 5y = 2   →   5y = - 8x + 2   →   y = (-8/5)x + 2  ⇒ m = -8/5

perpendicular slope = 5/8

Point-Slope formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)  ; where (x₁, y₁) is the given point

y - (-7) = (5/8)(x - 2)

y + 7 = (5/8)(x - 2)

8(y + 7) = 5(x - 2)

8y + 56 = 5x - 10

8y + 66 = 5x

        66 = 5x - 8y   ⇒   5x - 8y = 66

Answer: 5x - 8y = 66

A circle whose area is 4 has a radius of x find the area of a circle whose radius is 3x
____ [38]
The first one is 1.12867 because you need to set it up like this.
4=3.14(x)squared
4/3.14=x(squared)
x=1.12867

The second one is done simply by multiplying it out.
A=3.14(3x)squared
A=3.14(9x[squared])
A=28.26x[squared]        -The squared is referring to the x.

What is the answer of this equation ? 10x-6(2x+5)=20
Rudiy27

Answer:

Simplifying

x = -25

Step-by-step explanation:

Reorder the terms:

10x + -6(5 + 2x) = 20

10x + (5 * -6 + 2x * -6) = 20

10x + (-30 + -12x) = 20

Reorder the terms:

-30 + 10x + -12x = 20

Combine like terms: 10x + -12x = -2x

-30 + -2x = 20

Solving

-30 + -2x = 20

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + -2x = 20 + 30

Combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + -2x = 20 + 30

-2x = 20 + 30

Combine like terms: 20 + 30 = 50

-2x = 50

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = -25
