Answer:
2 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
9 5/12 - 6 7/12
We will need to borrow from the 9
8 12/12 + 5/12 - 6 7/12
8 17/12 - 6 7/12
(8-6) + (17/12 -7/12)
2 10/12
This simplifies. Divide the top and bottom of the fraction by 2
2 5/6
Given:
A line passes through (1,-2) and is perpendicular to 
.
To find:
The equation of that line.
Solution:
We have, equation of perpendicular line.
Slope of this line is
Product of slope of two perpendicular lines is -1.
Now, slope of required line is 
and it passes through (1,-2). So, the equation of line is
where, m is slope.
Therefore, the equation of required line is .
24x^2 +25x - 47 53
----------------------- = -8x -3 - ---------------
ax-2 ax-2
add 53/ax-2 to each side
24x^2 +25x - 47+53
----------------------- = -8x -3
ax-2
24x^2 +25x +6
----------------------- = -8x -3
ax-2
multiply each side by ax-2
24x^2 +25x +6 = (ax-2) (-8x-3)
multiply out the right hand side
24x^2 +25x +6 = -8ax^2 +16x-3ax +6
24 = -8a 25 = 16 -3a
a = -3 9 = -3a
a = -3
Choice B
