8 / 86 = 12 / x
cross multiply
(8)(x) = (86)(12)
8x = 1032
x = 1032/8
x = 129 pieces

Identify the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to y = -1/3 x + 2 and passes through (2, 1).

kari74 [83]

To get your answer, you will need to find the perpendicular slope for -1/3x which is just the opposite therefore it will be 3x. Your slope is 3x as perpendicular so use this slope to do point slope. Y-1=3(x-2). Distribute y-1=3x-6. Add 1 to both sides. (-1+1) (-6+1)=-5. So your equation in slope intercept form is y=3x-5. Going through the two points.

Hope this helps!

Graph -5x-8y=40

Triss [41]

Answer:

Please, see the attached file.

Thanks.

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x-8y=40

This is a linear equation, and its graph is a right line, we only need two points, because by two points only goes trough only a right line:

1) For x=0→ -5(0)-8y=40

0-8y=40

-8y=40

Dividing both sides of the equation by -8:

-8y/(-8)=40/(-8)

y=-5

Point=(x,y)→Point=(0,-5)

2) For y=0→ -5x-8(0)=40

-5x-0=40

-5x=40

Dividing both sides of the equation by -5:

-5x/(-5)=40/(-5)

x=-8

Point=(x,y)→Point=(-8,0)

With these two points (0,-5) and (-8,0) we can draw the right line.

Explain the role of the GCF in factoring a polynomial.

andreev551 [17]

The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) is the largest number that will be divided evenly into that number. For example, for 24, the GCF is 12. For a polynomial, the GCF is the largest polynomial<span> that will divide evenly into that polynomial.</span>
