Answer:

y =-2x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a point and a slope

(5,-2)  and m =-2

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b

y = -2x+b

Substitute in the point

-2 = -2(5)+b

-2 = -10+b

Add 10 to each side

-2+ 10 = -10+10 +b

8 = b

The equation is

y =-2x+8

Answer:

y = negative 2 x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 2 = negative 2 (x minus 5)

y + 2 = -2x + 10

y = -2x + 10 - 2

y = -2x + 8

What is the equation of the perpendicular bisector of line AB?
Usimov [2.4K]
It should be B

Because the slope of AB is 6/5 and when you are finding it’s perpendicular bisector then the slope of that line should be the negative reciprocal, it should be -5/6.

Are 12/7 and 36/21 proportional
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply:

12 * 21 = 7 * 36

Simplifying

12 * 21 = 7 * 36

Multiply 12 * 21

252 = 7 * 36

Multiply 7 * 36

252 = 252

Add '-252' to each side of the equation.

252 + -252 = 252 + -252

Combine like terms: 252 + -252 = 0

0 = 252 + -252

Combine like terms: 252 + -252 = 0

0 = 0

Solving

0 = 0

Couldn't find a variable to solve for.

This equation is an identity, all real numbers are solutions.

(hope this helps can i plz have brainlist :D hehe)

Math help guys how wouls i work this out
Andrei [34K]

8 > 7 + \frac{x}{6}   Subtract 7 from both sides

1 > \frac{x}{6}   Multiply both sides by 6

6 > x   Flip it around so it's easier to read

x < 6

You can graph your answer by drawing an open circle at the 6 and coloring the line to the left. The circle should be open, because x is <em>less than 6</em>, not less than or equal to. You would color to the left to show that x can be anything less than 6.
