C. Multiply both sides by 9/5.

C = 5/9(F – 32)

We want to isolate F, which means we need to get F alone.

The quantity in the parentheses is multiplied by 5/9.  We need to do the opposite, or multiply by the reciprocal to isolate the parentheses

9/5 C = 9/5* 5/9(F – 32)

9/5 C = F-32

This is the first step in isolating, or solving, for F

what is the equation of a line in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to y=2x+2 and passes through the point (8,-4)
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The equation of the line that is <em>perpendicular</em> to <em>y = 2x + 2</em> is

<em>y = -1/2x</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The original equation is y = 2x + 2; it's slope is <em>2</em>

Any line perpendicular to this equation would have to have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

Example:

y = 2x + 2 so,

the perpendicular line's slope must be -1/2

Write a new equation with the new slope:

y = -1/2x + b

We know that this line passes through (8, -4)

Plug these coordinates in the equation to find b, the y-intercept

-4 = -1/2 (8) + b

-4 = -4 + b

0 = b

b = 0

We do not have to write y = -1/2x + 0

So, our final answer is "y = -1/2x  is perpendicular to y = 2x+2"

quester [9]

Answer:

To determine whether a decimal is rational or not, you need to know that...

Irrational numbers don't end and have no pattern whereas rational numbers are the complete opposite. Rational numbers end and have a repeating pattern.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are examples of irrational numbers:

0.9384903204..... , π , √2

Examples of rational numbers:

0.777777... (is rational because it has a repeating pattern of 7) , √49

Hope this helps :)
