Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
expanding the bracket, we would have
-2x -18 = -x+1+2
-2x+x= 3 +18
-x=21
x=-21
Answer:
-9/50
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2x + 11 = 25
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x.
Double of x and add 11 equals 25.
2x + 11 = 25
Solve the equation.
2x + 11 = 25
Subtract 11 on both sides.
2x = 25 - 11
2x = 14
Divide 2 on both sides.
x = 14/2
x = 7
Y = 2x - 17, comparing to y = mx + c, slope m = 2.
If perpendicular, the new slope would be -1/2, that is the negative reciprocal of 2.
And passing through (-8 , 1).
using y = mx + c, and x = -8, y = 1, m = -1/2
1 = -1/2*-8 + c
1 = 4 + c
1 - 4 = c
c = -3
y = mx + c, substituting m = -1/2, and c = -3, y = -(1/2)x - 3.
Option C.
