Which equation is the equation of the line that passes threw (-10,3) and is perpendiculare to y=5x-7?

1 answer:

4 0

When a line is perpendicular to another line, the gradient becomes the “negative reciprocal” which basically means flip the gradient and change the sign. In this instance the negative reciprocal of 5x has to be -1/5 as it has been flipped and made negative. At this point the answer can only be B or C.
After this you can use the point given to work out the y-intercept:
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-3 = -1/5(x+10)
y-3 = -1/5x - 2
y = -1/5x -1
And there’s your answer: C

Graph the inequality.<br> -6 ≤y + 2x < 15

omeli [17]

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. The correct option is B.

<h3>What are inequalities?</h3>

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. Also, it helps us to compare the non-equal expressions so that an equation can be formed. It is mostly denoted by the symbol <, >, ≤, and ≥.

The given inequality -6 ≤y + 2x < 15 can be broken into two small inequality, as shown below.

-6 ≤y + 2x
y + 2x < 15

Now, if we plot the inequality as shown below, then the area in which both the shaded region overlap is the area of the this inequality.

Hence, the correct option is B.

first of all what is 16+8=24

first step..i started from 2 and did twice of that wich is 4 but that only got $6

second step.... just keep doing your multiples....

third step....as soon as i got to the number 8 i did twice of that and i got 16 then i added those and i got $24

Perform the following division:

timofeeve [1]

(33/4) / (2/8)
when dividing with fractions, flip what u r dividing by, then multiply
33/4 * 8/2 = 66/2 = 33...hmm...not an answer choice

let me try something..
(3 3/4) / (2/8) =
15/4 * 8/2 =
30/2 =
15 <====possibly this one if ur problem is : (3 3/4) / (2/8)
