Answer:

slope = - \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 2x + 7 is in this form with slope m = 2

This line is perpendicular to the side it bisects.

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{2}

SIMPLE! 30 POINTS AND I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Serhud [2]
SOLUTION:

To begin with, let's establish the problem as the following:

5 + 7

An effective method to solve this problem would be to convert it into a visual representation in order to obtain a better understanding.

As attached in the diagram above, I have demonstrated the problem visually. The five red circles / dots represent the five in the problem whilst the 7 circles / dots represent the 7 in the problem. Now we must simply count each of the circles / dots to obtain the total number which would be our final answer.

We can also simply use our fingers on our hands to solve the problem by counting 5 on our fingers and then adding 7 or vice versa to obtain the final answer.

FINAL ANSWER:

Hence, through either of these two methods, we obtain the final answer to the problem as follows:

5 + 7 = 12

Hope this helps! :)

Victoria spent one-fourth of her birthday money on clothes. She received another $25 a week later. If she has a total of $70 now
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

she had $60 before she went for shopping

Step-by-step explanation:

PLZ MARK BRAINLIEST

Let x represent the amount of money that Victoria had before she went for shopping.

Victoria spent one-fourth or her birthday money on clothes. It means that the amount she spent on shopping is 1/4 × x = x/4. Amount that she was having left would be x - x/4 = 3x/4

She received another 25$ a week later. The amount that she is having at this point will be 3x/4 + 25

If she has a total of 70$ now, it means that

3x/4 + 25 = 70

Multiplying through by 4

3x + 100 = 280

3x ,= 280 - 100 = 180

x = 180/3 = 60

How do you solve it?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

<em>i: </em>x=-2, x=1

<em>ii: </em>x=-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic form:

You solve <em>i </em>by using FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) because it is a multiplication problem.

(x+2)(x-1)=0

<em>"first"</em> would be x*x, which would equal x^{2}

<em>"outside"</em> would be x*-1, which would equal -1x, or -x

<em>"inside"</em> would be 2*x, which would equal 2x

<em>"last" </em>would be 2*-1, which would equal -2

Now you need to combine the terms so that they are one after the other

x^{2}-x +2x-2

Combine like terms, and you should get:

x^{2} +x-2

i Solution

<em>You need to get the variable by itself.</em>

<em>Subtract two from both sides</em>

x+2=0\\x=-2

<em>Add one to both sides.</em>

x-1=0\\x=1

ii Solution

<em>Add all the terms.</em>

x+2+x-1=0\\2x+1=0\\2x=-1\\x=-\frac{1}{2}
