I'm going to use the substitution method.
If y = - 3/2 - 7, then:
1/2x + 5 = - 3/2x - 7
Combine like terms:
4/2x = - 12. Mutiply both sides by 2/4 to get x = -12 (2/4)
Simplify to get:
x = - 6.
Plug - 6 back in for x in either equation.
Y = 1/2( - 6) + 5 which becomes Y = - 3 + 5.
X = - 6, Y = 2
Perpendicular lines will have negative reciprocal slopes. What that means is if u have a slope of 1/2, to find the negative reciprocal, flip the slope and change the sign.......flip 2/1, change the sign -2/1 or just -2. So the negative reciprocal for the slope of 1/2 is -2.
A. y = 1/5x + 3.....slope here is 1/5, so for a perpendicular line, u r gonna need an equation with the slope of -5.....and that would be : y + 3 = -5(x + 2).
B. Parallel lines will have the same slope. y = 5x - 2...the slope here is 5...so a parallel line will have a slope of 5.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 5
(8,-2)...x = 8 and y = -2
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y intercept
-2 = 5(8) + b
-2 = 40 + b
-2 - 40 = b
-42 = b
so ur parallel equation is : y = 5x -42
Hello there.
<span>A number cube has sides numbered 1 through 6. The probability of rolling a 2 is 16
what is the probability of not rolling a 2?
Answer: I'm guessing that by 16 you meant 1/6. Therefore you do 6/6 - 1/6 = 5/6,
Therefore the answer is 5/6.
Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying ^-^</span>
Answer:
20.0%
Step-by-step explanation:
The last 30 presidents of America starts from the 16th president, Abraham Lincoln and ends with the current and 45th president, Donald Trump.
The presidents that are 60 and above years during this period include
Donald Trump, Goerge H. W. Bush, Roland Regan, Gerald Ford, Dwight D. Eisenhower and Harry S. Truman.
Making 6 of them out of 30
The percentage is given by
Number of presidents aged 60 and above×100/Total number of presidents
6×30/100=20%
