Answer:

Option A. y= -1/5x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

we have

y=5x-2

The slope m is

m=5

step 2

Find the slope of a line perpendicular to the given line

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is -1)

m1*m2=-1

we have

m1=5

(5)*m2=-1

m2=-1/5

therefore

The equation of a line perpendicular to the given line could be

y= -1/5x + 5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

She makes $325 a week, so go to the 8th row, for weekly income of $300 to $400.  She claims 2 exemptions, so go to the third column labeled 2.  The value is 2.  That means the $2 is withheld from her paycheck on top of the 6.25% for FICA.  The total is therefore:

$2 + (0.0625) ($325)

$22.3125

Rounded to the nearest cent, that's $22.31.

Indentify the slope of the parallel line to the equation: y = 3/5x + 13
Rudiy27

Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equivalent slopes. Therefore, the slope of the parallel line to y = 3/5x + 13 would have to be 3/5.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

x=1, y=1. (1, 1). The answer is D).

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-5y=-2

4x-7y=-3

--------------

4(3x-5y)=4(-2)

-3(4x-7y)=-3(-3)

------------------------

12x-20y=-8

-12x+21y=9

--------------------

y=1

3x-5(1)=-2

3x-5=-2

3x=-2+5

3x=3

x=3/3

x=1
