If 2/3j-1/4k=5/2 what is the value of 8j-3k?

Mathematics

3 0

To arrive into the final equation 8j-3k, we must multiply both sides of the original equation with the least common denominator (lcd) of the two fractions.

In this case, the lcd is 12. Multiplying that to both sides will result in:

(2/3j - 1/4k = 5/2) *12

(2/3j)*12 – (1/4k)*12 = (5/2)*12

<span>8j – 3k = 30</span>

(1, 3) and (-3, -5)<br> write a linear equation given the two points
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

y = 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the slope;  (change in y values)/(change in x values)

Slope = (-5 - 3)/ (-3 - 1) = -8/-4 = 2

2. Find the y-intercept (b) using  the slope intercept formula: y = mx + b

    m = 2 and using point (1, 3) , solve for "b"

       y = mx + b

       3 = 2(1) + b

       3 = 2 + b

      1 = b

3.  Write the linear equation: y = 2x + 1

How do you find the slope of a line perpendicular to a given line?
enyata [817]
You have a line:
y=mx+b  (slope-intercepted form)
m=slope of this line.

The slope of a line perpendicular to that given line will be: ´"m´"
m´=-1/m.

For example:
y=8x+3
m=8

The solpe fo a line perpendicular to "y=8x+3" is:
m`=-1/8

What is the domain of the function f(x) = 2x /(3x^2− 3
Svet_ta [14]
The domain of the function in this case will be for when the denominator is different from zero:
 3x ^ 2- 3 = 0
 3x ^ 2 = 3
 x ^ 2 = 3/3
 x ^ 2 = 1
 x = + / - 1
 Therefore the domain of this function are all reals without including x = 1 and x = -1
