The answer you're looking for is A: 3

5x-1=14
    +1  +1

(the -1 cancels out)

5x=15

(divide by 5 on both sides)

x=3

:P I hoped this helped!

5x - 1 = 14 

 5x = 14 + 1

5x = 13

x = 3

What are the coordinates of point S? On a coordinate plane, point S is 0.75 units to the left and 0.5 units up. (Negative three-
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The coordinates of S is ( \frac{-3}{4}, \frac{1}{2})

Step-by-step explanation:

We are supposed to find the coordinates of point S

Point S is 0.75 units to the left

So, x coordinate of point S = -0.75 = \frac{-3}{4}

Now we are given that point S is 0.5 units up.

So, y coordinate of point S = 0.5 = \frac{1}{2}

So, The coordinates of S is ( \frac{-3}{4}, \frac{1}{2})

So, Option A is true .

Math help Please!!!!

Part A. What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line whose equation is −2y=3x+7?

Rewrite the equation  −2y=3x+7 in the form y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x-\dfrac{7}{2}. Here the slope of the given line is  m_1=-\dfrac{3}{2}. If m_2 is the slope of perpendicular line, then

m_1\cdot m_2=-1,\\ \\m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}=\dfrac{2}{3}.

Answer 1: \dfrac{2}{3}

Part B. The slope of the line y=−2x+3 is -2. Since -\dfrac{3}{2}\neq -2\quad \text{and}\quad \dfrac{2}{3}\neq -2, then lines from part A are not parallel to line a.

Since -2\cdot \left(-\dfrac{3}{2}\right)=3\neq -1\quad \text{and}\quad -2\cdot \dfrac{2}{3}=-\dfrac{4}{3}\neq -1, both lines are not perpendicular to line a.

Answer 2: Neither parallel nor perpendicular to line a

Part C. The line parallel to the line 2x+5y=10 has the equation 2x+5y=b. This line passes through the point (5,-4), then

2·5+5·(-4)=b,

10-20=b,

b=-10.

Answer 3: 2x+5y=-10.

Part D. The slope of the line y=\dfrac{x}{4}+5 is \dfrac{1}{4}. Then the slope of perpendicular line is -4 and the equation of the perpendicular line is y=-4x+b. This line passes through the point (2,7), then

7=-4·2+b,

b=7+8,

b=15.

Answer 4: y=-4x+15.

Part E. Consider vectors \vec{p}_1=(-c-0,0-(-d))=(-c,d)\quad \text{and}\quad \vec{p}_2=(0-b,a-0)=(-b,a). These vectors are collinear, then

\dfrac{-c}{-b}=\dfrac{d}{a},\quad \text{or}\quad -\dfrac{a}{b}=-\dfrac{d}{c}.

Answer 5: -\dfrac{a}{b}=-\dfrac{d}{c}.

A company is paying a local radio station to run its commercials. The cost for running commercials is a one-time campaign fee an
blondinia [14]
This equation is linear, which means that it goes up by the same amount every time you increase X by one. The general form of a linear equation is <span>y=m∗x+b</span> where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept indicates where the equation starts at x=0. In this case, it's 250, meaning that buying the commercial slot cost $250. m, on the other hand, is the slope of the graph. Here we have 100, meaning that it costs $100 per second to run the commercial. This can be visualized like so:<span>y(0)=100∗0+250=250</span><span>y(1)=100∗1+250=350</span>As you can see, the cost went up by $100 after one second. In general, the slope represents the amount added per time, whilst the y-intercept represents the initial amount.
