Answer:

y = -5x - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear equations, or lines, that are perpendicular to each other have opposite reciprocals for the value of slope.  For the given line, y = 1/5x - 2, the slope is 1/5 and the opposite reciprocal is -5.

Given the value of the slope and a given point on the second line, you can solve for 'b':

y = mx + b

8 = (-5)(-5) + b

8 = 25 + b

-17 = b

y = -5x - 17

Kate and Jean paint a house together in 6 days. If they work alone, Kate takes 5 fewer days than Jean would take to do the same
navik [9.2K]
X = number of days it would take Kate to paint the house by herself. .
<span>x+5 = number of days it would take Jean to paint the house by herself.</span>
<span>Together, they paint the house in 6 days: </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x+5) = 1/6 </span>
<span>Multiply both sides by 6x(x+5) </span>
<span>6(x+5) + 6x = x(x+5) </span>
<span>12x + 30 = x^2 + 5x </span>
<span>x^2 − 7x − 30 = 0 
</span>therefore the answer is A.
