Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation then isolating teh varible.
your answer = - 1/7
The answer is 18 beacause 6+6+2+4=18
The slope of a line perpendicular to another is the negative reciprocal of the original. The negative reciprocal of -1 is 1. The equation will read:
y=x+b
To solve for the y-intercept (b), plug in the given values of x and y:
4=-2+b
<em>*Add 2 to both sides*</em>
D. 6
Hope this helps!!
X = y + 11
2x + y = -2
2(y + 11) + y = -2
2y + 22 + y = -2
3y + 22 = -2
3y = -24
y = -8
x = y + 11
x = -8 + 11
x = 3
Solution set {3, -8} (C)
