(2.5 • 10^4) - (1.5 • 10^3)<br><br> Evaluate please, can you show the steps

Usimov [2.4K]

According to PEMDAS, you would look in the parenthesis first. In the first set of parenthesis we have an exponent. 10x10x10x10 is 10,000. Then we multiply this by 2.5. We now have 25,000. We put this to the side..

Next, we do the same thing on the other side -- 10x10x10 is 1,000 and then you multiply that answer by 1.5 and we have 1,500. Now we can subtract. 25,000 - 1500 = 23,500 :)

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (8,-7)(8,−7) and is parallel to the line 5x+4y=165x+4y=16?

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

The equation of line that passes through the point (8,-7) and is parallel to the line 5x+4y=16 is $\mathbf{y=-\frac{5}{4}x+3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write an equation of the line that passes through the point (8,-7) and is parallel to the line 5x+4y=16.

The equation will be of form $y=mx+b$ where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Finding slope of the line:

Since both the lines are parallel, and we know that parallel lines have same slope.

The slope of given line $5x+4y=16$ can be found by writing in slope-intercept form $y=mx+b$

$5x+4y=16\\4y=-5x+16\\y=-\frac{5}{4}x+16$

Comparing with $y=mx+b$ the slope m is: $m=-\frac{5}{4}$

So, the slope of required line is: $m=-\frac{5}{4}$

Now, finding y-intercept b

y-intercept can be found using slope $m=-\frac{5}{4}$ and point (8,-7)

$y=mx+b\\-7=-\frac{5}{4}(8)+b\\-7=-5(2)+b\\-7=-10+b\\b=-7+10\\b=3$

So, we get y-intercept: b=3

Now, the equation of required line having slope $m=-\frac{5}{4}$ and y-intercept b=3 is:

$y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{5}{4}x+3$

So, the equation of line that passes through the point (8,-7) and is parallel to the line 5x+4y=16 $\mathbf{y=-\frac{5}{4}x+3}$
