Dominik [7]4 years ago

Answer:

x = -36

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

x/16 - (x + 2)/8 = 2

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. <u>Multiply both sides by 16:</u> x - 2(x + 2) = 32
  2. <u>Distribute -2:</u> x - 2x - 4 = 32
  3. <u>Combine like terms:</u> -x - 4 = 32
  4. <u>Add 4 to both sides:</u> -x = 36
  5. <u>Divide both sides by -1:</u> x = -36

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

-36/16 - (-36 + 2)/8 = 2

-9/4 - -34/8 = 2

-9/4 + 17/4 = 2

8/4 = 2

2 = 2

Find the value of y so that WX is perpendicular to YZ
Alexxandr [17]

step 1

Find out the slope WX

W(2,-3) and X(-4,9)

m=(9+3)/(-4-2)

m=12/-6

m=-2

step 2

Find out the slope YZ

Y(5,y) and Z(-1,1)

m=(1-y)/(-1-5)

m=(1-y)/-6

m=(y-1)/6

step 3

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular

then

their slopes are negative reciprocal

that means

(y-1)/6=1/2 -----> because the negative reciprocal of -2 is 1/2

solve for y

2y-2=6

2y=6+2

2y=8

<h2>y=4</h2>

HELP ME!!! ANY ABSURD WILL BE REPORTED!!
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

y=10x+9; y=5x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, answers B and D are wrong because the formula is <em>y=mx+b. </em>So, that leaves us with a and C.  

I couldn't find the slope because it was hard to see. try finding a point where it is clear what the points are and do change in y over change in x. I hope this helped at least a bit.
