Answer:

it would be Y= -2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, we know that the b value is 4, because that is the x-intercept that is information given, so we can atomatically put that in.

Next we need to find the m value, which can be found by knowing the rules of a perpendicular eqution. to change it you must change the 1/2 and flip the equation and change the signs

soooooo  1/2 would change into 2/1   which is 2 and we would addd the negative sign so

Y=-2x+4

Answer:

the desired equation is y = -2x + 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line with slope 1/2, we find the negative reciprocal of that to obtain the slope of a line perpendicular to the given line:  m = -2.

Recall that at an x-intercept, y = 0.  Here we're told that the x-intercept is (4, 0).  Therefore, y = mx + b becomes 0 = -2(4) + b, or b = 8.

Then the desired equation is y = -2x + 8.

5(x + 1) = 4(x + 8)
Reika [66]
<span>5(x + 1) = 4(x + 8)
Use distributive property
5x+5=4x+32
Subtract 4x from both sides
x+5=32
Subtract 5 from both sides
Final Answer: x=27</span>

How does adding a solute ( use only one - salt or sugar) effect the time of water to change from a liquid to a solid?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

adding salt makes the water freeze slower and evaporate slower too.

Step-by-step explanation:

While pure water freezes at 0°C (32°F), salt water needs to be colder before it freezes and so it usually takes longer to freeze. The more salt in the water, the lower the freezing point.
