Perpendicular has slope that multiplies to -1

the slope for ax+by=c is -a/b
-1x+2y=4
slope=-(-1)/2=1/2
1/2 times what=-1?
-2

y=mx+b
m=slope
we need slope is -2
y=-2x+b
find b
given
(-2,1)
(x,y)
x=-2 and y=1 is a solution

1=-2(-2)+b
1=4+b
mius 4 both sides
-3=b


y=-2x-3 is equation

A rectangle is 4xcm wide and 2cm long what do you notice
deff fn [24]

The width of the rectangle is twice the length of the rectangle

<h3>How to compare the dimensions of the rectangle?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Width = 4 cm

Length = 2 cm

Express 4 cm as 2 * 2 cm

Width = 2 * 2 cm

Substitute Length = 2 cm in Width = 2 * 2 cm

Width = 2 * Length

This means that the width of the rectangle is twice the length of the rectangle

Hence, the true statement is that the width of the rectangle is twice the length of the rectangle

No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95

<h3>How to form a linear equation</h3>

Let the time taken to play basketball be "x"

Let the time taken to play volleyball be "y"

According to the information given, Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day, then;

x + y = 95

If he plays basketball for 25 minutes long, then;

x = 25

The pair of linear equations that represents the statement are:

x  + y = 95
x = 25

The time it takes Eric to play volleyball every day is expressed as:

y = 95 - x

y = 95 - 25

y = 70 minutes

No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95

Vikki [24]

<span>                   a⁴(3a² - 2a + 1)

We just have to multiply each term inside the parentheses by  a⁴  .

           a⁴</span><span>(3a²        )  =  3a⁶
 
           a⁴</span><span>(    - 2a    )  =  -2a⁵
 
           a⁴</span><span>(            1)  =  a⁴

Now, just addum up :      3a⁶ - 2a⁵ + a⁴</span>
