Find the slope of the line first:
5x - 2y = -6,
y = (5/2)x + 3;
Since we need a line that's perpendicular, m = - (2/5).
The only equation that has the slope of this m is 2x + 5y = -10;
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
you start with the parentheses -16-9 turns into -16 + (-9)
and then you try to solve everything.
Answer:
A) (4, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
consecutive even numbers are 2,4, 6...
Let the smallest of the 3 numbers be x.
2nd number= x+2
3rd number
=x+2+2
= x+4
sum of the 3 numbers= x +x+2 +x+4
114= 3x+6
3x= 114 -6 (-3 on both sides)
3x= 108 (simplify)
x= 108 ÷3
x= 36
Thus, the smallest number is 36.
Let's check!
36+38+40= 114 ✓
