Answer:

The answer to your question is y = -7/2x -13/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Point = (-3, 4)

Line -2x + 7y = -3

Process

1.- Solve equation for y to find the slope of the perpendicular line

7y = 2x - 3

y = 2/7 x - 3/7

slope = 2/7

Slope of the perpendicular line = -7/2

2.- Find the equation of the new line

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = -7/2(x + 3)

y - 4 = -7/2x - 21/2

y = -7/2x - 21/2 + 4

y = -7/2x -21/2 + 8/2

3.- Result

y = -7/2x -13/2

$a=00110111 = 00110_2 \times 2^{111_2} = 6 \times 2^{-1} = 3$

$b=11011000 = 11011_2 \times 2^{000_2} = -(0100_2 + 1) =-(4+1)=-5$

$a+b=-2 = -1 \times 2^{001} = -2 \times 2^{0} = -4 \times 2^{-1}$ etc.

$a+b=-2 = 11111001 = 11110000 = 11100111 = ...$

Hard to select the correct answers without seeing the choices. Let's check a couple,

$11111001 = -(00000+1) \times 2^{1} = -2 \quad\checkmark$

$11110000 = -(00001 + 1) \times 2^{0} = -2 \quad\checkmark$

$11100111 = -(00011 + 1) \times 2^{-1} = -4/2= -2 \quad\checkmark$

Answer:

30 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of trapezium = 1/2 (a + b)h

a = 6 ft , b = 9 ft , h = 4 ft

Area = 1/2 (6 + 9) 4

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question

marta [7]

Two transformations occur on F(x) to obtain G(x).

a) Multiplication by -1
This means, the function is reflected across x-axis

b) Multiplication by 5.
This means vertical stretch by a factor of 5.

So, G(x) can be obtained by reflecting F(x) across x-axis and stretching it vertically be a factor of 5.

So, the correct answer is option B

Given g ( x ) = 2 x + 3 , solve for x when g(x)=3.

padilas [110]

Answer:

x = 0

Step by step explanation:

g ( x ) = 2x + 3

If x = 0,

g ( 0 ) = 2 (0) + 3

or, g ( 0 ) = 3
