Answer:

  -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging this equation to slope-intercept form, we see the slope (x-coefficient) is 2:

  2x = 7 + y . . . . . add y

  y = 2x -7 . . . . . . subtract 7

The slope of the perpendicular line is the opposite of the reciprocal of this:

  -1/2 = slope of perpendicular

Use a calculator to find an approximate solution to the equation. Round any intermediate work and steps to three decimal places.
Mariana [72]
Given;
6Ln (x + 2.8) = 9.6 

We will transpose 6 in the Ln, so that we will leave Ln alone.
Ln (x + 2.8) = 9.6/6 = 1.6 

we divide the 9.6 to 6 and we get 1.6

x + 2.8 = e^1.6 
e^ for the substitution of Ln

x = e^1.6 - 2.8 
insert the e^(1.6) in the calculator and you will get 4.95303242439511 and subtract 2.8 and you will get the answer.

x = 2.153 
2.153 is the final answer in this question.

When 0.5(20x – 50y + 36) – 0.25(–100x + 40y – 12) is simplified, what is the resulting expression?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

<h2>35x - 35y + 21</h2>

solution,

0.5(20x - 50y + 36) - 0.25( - 100x + 40y - 12) \\  = 10x - 25y + 18  + 25x - 10y + 3 \\

Combine the like terms:

= 10x + 25x - 25y - 10y + 18 + 3 \\

Simplify:

35x - 35y + 21

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...
