First thing you want to do, is reverse the question.
57/3 - 3.
57/3 = 19.
19 - 3.
Your answer is 16.
Answer:
-7/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a perpendicular line is the "negative reciprocal" of the slope of the original line. so just switch the numbers and put the top number into a negative.
6 = 2(x+8) - 5x
⇒ 2x+ 2*8 -5x= 6
⇒ (2x -5x)+ 16= 6
⇒ -3x = 6 -16
⇒ -3x = -10
⇒ x= -10/(-3)
⇒ x= 10/3
⇒ x= 3 1/3
The correct answer is B. 3 1/3~
Use subsiution]
y=-3x+5
subsitute -3x+5 for y in second equation
5x-4(-3x+5)=-3
distribute
5x+12x-20=-3
add like terms
17x-20=-3
add 20 to both sides
17x=17
divide both sides by 17
x=1
now subsitute 1 for x
y=-3x+5
y=-3(1)+5
y=-3+5
y=2
x=1
y=2
