Simplify the expression
-10
Hope this helps! :)
If your looking for the answer, this question is invalid. However, if the question is asking for the function equation, the answer is y=3x-2
-2x-x+8
Step 1) -2x-1x+8
step 2) (-2-1)x+8
Step 3) -3x+8
Answer: -3x+8 :)
Answer:
the answer is Letter B because I had this problem on a test before and it was B
b = 1/6
Explanation:
3x-y=4 ...1st equation
Rewriting in slope- intercept form:
y = 3x - 4
2y+4bx=1
Rewriting in slope- intercept form:
2y = -4bx + 1
y = -4bx/2 + 1/2
Equation of line: y = mx + c
where m = slope, c = intercept
For a line to be perpendicular to another, the slope of one will be the negative reciprocal of the slope of another.
Slope of the 1st equation = 3
m = 3
reciprocal of 3 = 1/3
negative reciprocal of 3 = -1/3
Slope of the 2nd equation = -4b/2
we equate both slope:
negative reciprocal of 3 = -4b/2
-1/3 = -4b/2
cross multiply:
-1(2) = 3(-4b)
-2 = -12b
Divide both sides by -12:
-2/-12 = -12b/-12
b = 1/6
Hence, the value of b that makes the lines perpendicular is 1/6
