4 0

Answer:

The slope or incline is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

rewrite to get the form

y = ...

x - 5y = -10

- 5y = -10 -x

divide left and right if the = sign by -5 gives:

(-5/-5)y = (-1/-5)x + (-10/-5)

y = 1/5x +2

So the incline is 1/5

a perpendicular line has an incline of -1 *5/1 = -5

The slope or incline is -5

What is (5,1) reflected on the y axis
asambeis [7]

Answer:

(-5 , 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are reflecting over the x-axis, you are changing the sign of the y.

If you are reflecting over the y-axis, you are changing the sign of the x.

In this case, you have the point (5 , 1). You are reflecting over the y-axis, which means that you are flipping the sign of the x value.

(5 , 1) reflected over the y-axis is (-5 , 1)

(-5 , 1)

Given f (X) = 4x +6 find f (x) = 54
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = 4x + 6

f(x) = 54

Step 2: Substitute variables

54 = 4x + 6

Step 3: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Subtract 6 on both sides:</u> 48 = 4x

<u>Divide both sides by 4:</u> 12 = x

Step 4: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it is a solution.</em>

f(12) = 4(12) + 6

f(12) = 48 + 6

f(12) = 54
