<span>8x + 6y = 12

6y = -8x + 12

Divide the equation by 6,

y = -4/3x + 2

Now compare it with principle equation, y = mx + b

Where, Slope (m) = -4/3

In short, Your Answer would be: -4/3

Hope this helps!</span>

Using the quadratic formula to solve 5x=6x square-3, what are the values of x

hammer [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x = {6x}^{2} - 3$

$3 = 6x^{2} - 5x$

$0 = {6x}^{2} - 5x - 3$

${6x}^{2} - 5x - 3 = 0$

3 over 8 by x <br> Solve "x" <br> A: 5 over 64<br> B: 5 over 9<br> C: 1 over 6<br> D: 3 over 4

lapo4ka [179]

Answer: 1 is correct

2 is correct

3 is correct

4 is correct

5 is correct

6 is correct

7 is correct

8 is wrong it should be because you wouldn't add you would subtract it and the other number is negative so it would be x=-26

9 is correct

10 is correct

13 is correct

14 I think is correct

I think 15 is incorrect because if he says one less than twice the number of last year then I think you first should subtract 1 from 25 and then divide by 2 this would give you 17 packages

and I think 16 is correct too.

Lines a and b are perpendicular. The equation of line a is =13+3 y = 1 3 x + 3 . What is the equation of line b ?

maksim [4K]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes which are negative reciprocals. Line a with the equation y = 13x + 3 has slope 13. This means Line b which is perpendicular will have slope -1/13.

The equation of line b is any equation where -1/13 is the slope/

Example: y = -1/13x + 5 or y = -1/13x - 6

How do you solve this 4x+5xy–2y?

Kitty [74]

The simplified expression of 4x + 5xy - 2y is 4x(1 + y) + y(x - 2)

<h3>How to solve the expression?</h3>

The expression is given as:

4x + 5xy - 2y

The above expression cannot be solved.

However, the expression can be grouped

So, we have:

4x + 5xy - 2y

Rewrite 5xy as 4xy + xy

So, we have:

4x + 5xy - 2y = 4x + 4xy + xy - 2y

Factorize the expression

4x + 5xy - 2y = 4x(1 + y) + y(x - 2)

Hence, the simplified expression of 4x + 5xy - 2y is 4x(1 + y) + y(x - 2)
