-88 = 2 + 2(5m - 5)

Distribute 2 inside the parentheses.

-88 = 2 + 10m - 10

Combine like terms on the right side.

-88 = -8 + 10m

Add 8 to both sides.

-80 = 10m

Divide both sides by 10.

$\boxed {m = -8}$

What is an equation for the line through (11,-21) with undefined slope

Andreyy89

Answer:

$x=11$

Step-by-step explanation:

An undefined slope is a vertical line on a graph. This means it isn't equal to a y-value, but rather an x-value instead. All values of y work for this function, just as long as the x-coordinate is 11.

If the volume of the rectangular prism is represented by 6x^2-2x+8 and the base area is 2x-4 which expression represents the hei

MissTica

Check the picture below.

$\bf 6x^2-2x+8=(2x-4)h\implies \cfrac{6x^2-2x+8}{2x-4}=h
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3(2x^2-x+4)}{2(x-2)}=h\implies \cfrac{3(3x-4)(x+1)}{2(x-2)}=h$
