Answer:

$a = - \frac{1}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$5a - 2 = 23a$

Collect like terms and simplify

$- 2 = 23a - 5a \\ - 2 = 18a$

Divide both sides of the equation by 18 and simplify

$\frac{ - 2}{18} = \frac{18a}{18} \\ - \frac{1}{9} = a$

B.) Hibiscus Street

The key thing to remember is the slope of the lines. The equation for a line in slope intercept form is
y = ax + b
where
a = slope
b = y intercept

So the equation for Oak Street is y = 2/3x - 7. So it's slope is 2/3. And any street that has the same slope will be given a tree name. And any street that's perpendicular will be given a flower name. You can determine is a line is perpendicular if it has a slope that's the negative reciprocal. So a street that's perpendicular to Oak street will have a slope of -3/2.

Now you've just been given the equation to a new street that's y = -3/2x - 2. Since the slope is -3/2 and Oak street has a slope of 2/3, the new street is perpendicular to Oak street. And given the naming scheme, that means that the new street will have the name of a flower. So let's look at the available street names and pick a flower.
<span>
A.) Weeping Willow Street
* Nope a Weeping Willow is a tree. So this name won't work.

B.) Hibiscus Street
* Yes. A Hibiscus is a flower, so this name is suitable.

C.) Oak Street
* Nope. Not only is this a tree instead of a flower, but there's already an Oak street. So bad choice.

D.) Panther Street
* Nope, this is an animal, not a flower. Bad choice.

Figure PQRS is rotated counterclockwise

I gotchu fam, a rotation is occurring and we know this because it’s rotating 180°. Figures PQRS and P’Q’R’S’ are congruent because they are the same shape and size, just in different places.
