11/8 or 1 3/8

You must have the same denominator. Therefore, multiply 1/2 by 4 to get a denominator of 8. Be sure to do this for the numerator as well. You end up with 4/8 plus 7/8. You result with 11/8 or simplified 1 3/8.

F(x)= x^3 -2 g(x)= 3x+2 Find f(0) + g(0)
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

0

the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line with equation y=-2x-1 and passes through the point (1, -2) is?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

y=\frac{1}{2} x-\frac{5}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

<u>Note that</u>:

  • Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)
  • Perpendicular lines always have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other (ex. 3 and -1/3, 5/6 and -6/5, etc.)

<u>1) Determine the slope (m)</u>

When we look at the given line, y=-2x-1, we can identify that -2 is in the place of m, the slope of the line. Because perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other, we know that a line perpendicular to this would have a slope of \frac{1}{2}. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=\frac{1}{2} x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (b)</u>

y=\frac{1}{2} x+b

Plug in the given point (1,-2)

-2=\frac{1}{2}(1)+b\\-2=\frac{1}{2}+b

Subtract 1/2 from both sides

-2-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}+b-\frac{1}{2}\\-\frac{5}{2} = b

Therefore, the y-intercept of the line is -\frac{5}{2}. Plug this back into y=\frac{1}{2} x+b

y=\frac{1}{2} x-\frac{5}{2}

I hope this helps!

Which number is the additive inverse of -5?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

It would be 5

Step-by-step explanation:

SO the additive inverse would basically just be the opposite of the number, for example lets say you had 12, the additive inverse would be -12. You're just changing the sign of the number! From what i know i believe that's it. Have a nice day! :D
