Answer:

y=2/3x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. find the slope of the given line

2. find its opposite reciprocal(slope of the perpendicular line)

3. create a new linear equation using the new slope

4. substitute (3,-3) to find b

Answer:y = 2x/3 - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

The equation of the given line is

3x+2y=12

We would rearrange it so that it will form of the y = mx + c. It becomes

2y = -3x + 12

y = -3x/2 + 6

Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = - 3/2

If two lines are perpendicular, it means that the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (3,-3) is 2/3

To determine the intercept, we would substitute m = 2/3, x = 3 and y = -3 into y = mx + c. It becomes

- 3 = 2/3×3 + c = 2 + c

c = - 3 - 2 = - 5

The equation becomes

y = 2x/3 - 5

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Area of trapezium = ½*(AD + BC)*AB

Area = 42 cm²

AD = (x + 8) cm

BC = (x + 5) cm

AB = x cm

Plug in the values into the equation

42 = ½((x + 8) + (x + 5))*x

42 = ½((x + 8 + x + 5)*x

42 = ½(2x + 13)*x

Multiply both sides by 2

42*2 = (2x + 13)*x

84 = 2x² + 13x

2x² + 13x = 84

Subtract both sides by 84

2x² + 13x - 84 = 0

HELP PLS!!! I GIVE BRAINLIEST

Based on the multiplication property of equality, the statement that completes the proof is: C. CD = b(sin A) and CD = a(sin B).

<h3>What is the Multiplication Property of Equality?</h3>

The multiplication property of equality is given as, if a/b = y, then a = yb. Both sides of the equation is multiplied by the same value.

In step 5 where the multiplication property of equality is applied, we would have:

sin(A) = CD/b

Multiply both sides by b

sin(A) × b = CD/b × b

b(sin A) = CD

CD = b(sin A)

This same property is applied to sin B = CD/a to get CD = a(sin B).

Therefore, the missing statement is: C. CD = b(sin A) and CD = a(sin B).

-189=4x-3(-4x+15) help me i need help badly
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

−189=4x−3(−4x+15)

−189=16x−45

16x−45=−189

16x−45+45=−189+45

16x=−144

16x /16

= −144 /16

x=−9
