For perpendicular lines m2 = -1/m1, i.e. the product of the two slopes equals -1.
x - 5y = 3
5y = x + 3
y = 1/5 x + 3/5 => slope = 1/5
m2 = -1/(1/5) = -5
Equation of a line containing point (-4, 6) with a slope of -5 is
y - 6 = -5(x - (-4))
y - 6 = -5(x + 4)
y - 6 = -5x - 20
5x + y = -20 + 6
5x + y = -14
Answer:
I got 14 x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
to add all of the like terms you get:
2x + 7x + 5x = 14x
then add the other terms you get:
-6 + 4 = -2
when adding the two parts together you get:
14x -2
Am pretty sure this is right, sorry if its wrong
Maybe you should try 18 it might work because it will all be equal
40 is greater because we can easily see that 1/4 is not a whole number that is less than 40 and the 40/14 will be changed into a lesser mixed number which again, is less than 40.
