Answer:

the lines are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

if they are perpendicular the products of their gradients would be -1

the gradient of y=-x-6 is -1

the second equation needs to written to conform to y=mx+c

hence, 3x-3y=9

3x-9=3y

y=3x-9/3=x-3.the gradient of this line is 1

1x-1= -1

Which expression shows the first step in simplifying 2x – 3(x + 2y) – 5(y – 7x)?

artcher [175]

Answer: Option 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To simplify the expression shown in the problem, the first step is to apply the Distributive property, this means that you must multiply the number that are outside of the parentheses by the numbers inside of them.

2. Then, you have that the first step is:

$2x-3(x+2y)-5(y-7x)=2x-3x-6y-5y+35x$

3. Therefore, you can conclude that the correct answer is the third option.

A boutique prices merchandise by adding 80%. It later decreases by 25% the price of items that do not sell quickly. Does the ord

k0ka [10]

The order you apply the adjustments does make a difference because the percents that are applied will be applied to different amount.

For example, 80% of 100 = $80. The price would be $180.

Decreasing this by 25% 25% of 180 = $45; 180-45 = $135.

25% of 100 is not the same as 25% of 180.
