The answer is 5

If two slopes are perpendicular to one another, their product will be -1.
This can be shown as;
(-1/5) * x = -1
x = (-1)/(-1/5)
x = 5

-(x+3) = 2x-6 what is x
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first you make sure to multiply the parenthesis by the negative so then it would be,

-x-3=2x-6

Then you add the -3 from the right to the other side

so, -x=2x-3

Then you want all the X variables to one side so you subtract the 2x to both sides.

so, -3x=-3

divide both by -3

x=1

Fed [463]

Given - Taisha has a general goal is to burn the 280 calories.

she is varies by the 25 calories.

Find out the maximum and minimum of calories burn by the taisha.

To proof -

let us assume that the calories burn by the taisha be x.

as given the calories are varies by the 25 calories.

then the maximum calories equation becomes

x-25 = 280

x = 280 + 25

x = 305

the maximum calories burn by the taisha is 305 calories.

minimum calories equationbecomes

x + 25 = 280

x = 255

The minmum calories burn by the taisha is 255 calories.

Hence proved
