Answer:

-1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular slopes are negative reciprocals

The slope of y=8x+5 is 8, because it is in slope intercept form: y=mx+b form, where m is the slope.

Negative:

8/1--> -8/1

Reciprocal:

Flip the numerator and denominator

-8/1--> -1/8

So, the perpendicular slope of 8 is -1/8

Use the formula d=rt to find the distance a long distance runner can run at a rate of 9 1/2 miles per hour for time of 1 3/4 hou
eduard

d=rt

r = 9  1/2  as an improper fraction   (2*9 +1)/2 = 19/2

t = 1 3/4  as an improper fraction (4*1+3)/4 =7/4

d=rt

d = 19/2* 7/4 = 133/8

8 goes into 133 16 times with 5 left over

16 5/8 miles

Confused, and there's a test tomorrow.
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

  12y +16yi

Step-by-step explanation:

The thing about complex numbers is that you can treat them as binomials and use all of the things you know about multiplying and factoring polynomials.

Here, we assume you have ...

  (5 +2yi)(4 -3i) -(5 -2yi)(4 -3i)

The factor (4 -3i) can be factored out, so you have ...

  = ((5 +2yi) -(5 -2yi))(4 -3i)

  = (4yi)(4 -3i)

  = 16yi -12yi²

At this point, the definition of i comes into play, and you replace i² with -1.

  = 12y +16yi

I have 3 equations 9x+6, 2(5x-3) and 5y+14 how do i solve for x?
snow_tiger [21]
Set the equation equal to zero.

9x+6=0
Subtract 6 from both sides
9x = -6
Divide both sides by 9
x=-6/9
or -2/3

2(5x-3)=0
Distribute
10x-6=0
add 6 to both sides
10x=6
Divide by 10 on both sides
x=6/10 or 4/5

5y+14=0
-14 from both sides
5y=-14
divide both sides by 5
y=-14/5
or -2 and 4/5
