Find slope of line A:
Move into slope-intercept form y = mx+b

<span>5x + 8y = -9
8y = -5x - 9
y = (-5/8)x - 9/8

The slope of line A is -5/8.

If </span><span>Line B is perpendicular to line A, then

slope Line B = negative reciprocal of slope Line A</span>
<span>slope Line B = 8/5

So like B has the equation

y = (8/5)x + b

If it passes through (10,10), we know that when x = 10, y = 10. Use those values to solve for b:
</span>
<span>y = (8/5)x + b
10 = (8/5)·10 + b</span>
<span>10 = (8)·2 + b
10 = 16 + b
b = -6

So line B has equation </span>
<span>y = (8/5)x - 6

m = 8/5 and b = -6

so

m + b = 8/5 - 6 = 8/5 - 30/5 = -22/5

So m+b = -22/5 or -4.4 in decimal form
</span>

Cheryl climbed a set of stairs and stopped at the middle step. She then walked down 2 steps, up 4 steps, down 3 steps, and up 5
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

There were 8 total steps

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so we start in the middle.

-2 + 4 = 2. We're back in the middle.

2 - 3 = -1. One away from the middle.

-1 + 5 = 4. Now you're at the top.

4 x 2 = 8

Step by step 7 ,9, and 11 please. EVEN IF U CANT DO ALL, u can help with 1 or 2. Ill mark brainly.
gregori [183]

Answer:

7) 4 \ log_3(x) - 4 \ log_3(y)

9) 5log_4(7) - 5log_4(12)

11) 5log_5 \ (x) - log_5 \ (y)

Step-by-step explanation:

log_3 (\frac{x}{y})^{4}

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Use Logarithm of a Quotient which states

log_b \frac{M}{N}  = log_b M-log_bN

And also use Logarithm of a Power which states

log_b\ M^{n} = n\log_bM

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So using these two properties,

7. 4 \ log_3(x) - 4 \ log_3(y)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For #9, use the same logarithm propertied

log_4(\frac{7}{12})^5 = 5log_4(7) - 5log_4(12)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#11 is also the same concept

log_5\ \frac{x^5}{y} = 5log_5 \ (x) - log_5 \ (y)

It is not  - 5 log5(y) since only x is to the power of 5 not y

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope this is what you were looking for and helps you! Have a nice day/night :)
