Answer:
x = - 
, x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(4x - 5)² = 49 ( take the square root of both sides )
4x - 5 = ± 
= ± 7 ( add 5 to both sides )
4x = 5 ± 7, thus
4x = 5 - 7 = - 2 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 
= -
or
4x = 5 + 7 = 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 3
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
x = -
left side = (- 2 - 5)² = (- 7)² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution
x = 3
left side = (12 - 5)² = 7² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution
Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
rise: 1, run: 4
First, the equation needs to be put into slope-intercept form, which is y = -4/5x + 7/5. Then, you need to know what parallel and perpendicular lines are. REMEBER, parallel lines have the same slope, and perpendicular lines have slopes whose product equal -1. You just need to substitute. For the parallel line, -2 = -4/5(4) + b, and b = 6/5, so y = -4/5x + 6/5. For the perpendicular line, the slope is 5/4. Now substitute. -2 = 5/4(4) + b, and b = -7, so y = 5/4x -7.
