Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=3x-11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Let}\\\\k:y=m_1x+b_1\\\\l:y=m_2x+b_2\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\\\l\ \parallel\ k\iff m_1=m_2\\\\===================================\\\\y=3x-4\to m_1=3\\\\\text{Therefore}\ m_2=3.\\\\\text{We have the equation:}\ y=3x+b.\\\\\text{Put the coorsdinates of the point (2, -5) to the equation of the line}\\\\-5=3(2)+b\\-5=6+b\qquad\text{subtract 6 from both sides}\\-11=b\to b=-11$

I need to solve the equation 6n + 21 = - 3 - 2n

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

n= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, your're going to subtract from both sides

6n + 21 - 2 1= -3 - 2n - 21

Then simplify

6n = -2n - 24

Then add 2n on both sides

6n + 2n = -2n -24 + 2n

Simplify again

8n = -24

Then divide both sides by 8

8n/8 = -24/8

Then simplify and this is your answer

n= -3

1/3 ( x - 10) = -4 ???

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$x = - 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Simplify 1/3 ( x - 10) to x-10/3.

$\frac{x - 10}{3} = - 4$

2) Multiply both sides by 3.

$x - 10 = - 4 \times 3$

Simplify 4 × 3 to 12.

$x - 10 = - 12$

4) Add 10 to both sides.

$x = - 12 + 10$

5) Simplify -12 + 10 to -2.

$x = - 2$

So, therefor, the answer is, x = -2.
