Answer:

y = 2x/5 - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Rerrange and simplify eqation for simplicity

y = 5x/2 + 3

2) Perpindicular lines have inverse slopes (proof not shown so look it up if you require this)

m = 2/5

3) Construct base new equation

y = mx + d

4) Sub in in point and slope to solve for unknowns

-4 = (2/5)(5) + d

-4 = 2 + d

d = -6

5) Sub in known

y = 2x/5 - 6

Find the least common denominator (LCD) for the fractions. 1/12 and 3/4                                    A. 12        B. 4    
kirill [66]
'12' and '48' (choices 'A' and 'D') will both work as common denominators.

The least one is '12' .

Since 4 is a factor of 12, any multiple of 12 is also a multiple of 4 , and can
serve as a common denominator.  The smallest multiple of 12 is 12 itself.

Please explain how to get the answer
meriva
Q must be positive in F.

F. r squared will be positive, because any number times itself is positive, and to get a positive number for the answer, the two numbers you multiply need to be the same sign. If r squared is positive, q must be too. 

G. q does not have to be positive. If r is a negative number, then q can be negative. Say q=-2 and r=-3. -2-(-3) changes to -2+3, which equals 1.

H. Again, q can be negative if r is negative (two negative numbers multiplied together equals a positive answer.

J. q can be negative because even a negative number turns positive when squared.

Hope this helped you. :)
