We need to put these equations into y=mx+b format.
5x-3y=-6
-3y=-5x-6. (take 5x from both sides)
y=5/3 x +2 ( divide both sides by -3)
The slope is 5/3

3x+5y=-20
5y= -3x -20 (subtract 3x from both sides)
y=-3/5x -4 (divide both sides by 5)
The slope is -3/5

The slopes of perpendicular lines are the opposite (+/-) reciprocal. We have 5/3 and -3/5. This shows they are perpendicular.

If 7x + 11 = 39, then 7x = 28.<br> Name property
Bogdan [553]

Answer: Subtraction Property of Equality

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em> The Subtraction Property of Equality tells us that

we can subtract the same quantity, or equal quantities,

from both sides of an equation.

To get from the statement 7x + 11 = 39 to 7x = 28,

we subtract 11 from both sides to get 7x = 28.

22. Which equation has solutions of -2 and 3?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

  B. y=x²-x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the product ...

  0 = (x -a)(x -b) = x² -(a+b)x +ab

This equation has solutions x=a and x=b. You will note that ...

  • the constant is the product of the solutions (ab)
  • the coefficient of x is the opposite of their sum (-(a+b))

For solutions of -2 and 3, the constant will be (-2)(3) = -6. This eliminates choices C and D.

The sum of the solutions is -2+3 = 1, so the coefficient of x is -1, matching choice B.
