Rearrange the equation into standard form:
x+4y-24=0
bring y over to the other side
x-24=-4y
divide both sides by -4y=- \frac{x}{4}+6
We see that the y-intercept is (0,6) (through y=mx+b)
The formula for perpendicular lines is m_{1} × m_{2} =-1, and they must have a common coordinate (this will be (0,6), the y-intercept).
-1÷-x/4=4x, so the slope of the second line will be 4x.  The y-intercept doesn't change as the lines share a common coordinate, so the final equation of the second equation is y+4x+6

Intersecting on the y axis means x=0.
Plug x=0 in the equation to find out the y value of the intercept> 0+4y-24=0, y=6
so the both line passes the point (0,6)

two perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, that is, if one slope is a/b, the other is -b/a

In this case, the line x+4y-24=0, 4y=-x+24, y=-1/4 x + 6, the slope is -1/4, so the slope of the perpendicular line is 4/1.

the equation is y=4x+6

Answer: 5 is in the tenths place

4 is in the hundredths place.

Step-by-step explanation:

When dealing with the place value of numbers, we should note that the digit is in the tenths place is the first didgut after the decimal point. In the number 12.54, the first digit after the decimal place is 5.

The digit in the hundredths place is the digit that comes immediately after the tenths place. In this case given the number 12.54, the digit in the hundredths place is 4.

Answer:

10c - 4d

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rearrange the problem so similar variables are closer together

3c + 7c + 5d - 9d

2. Simplify the problem by adding like terms

3c + 7c = 10c

5d - 9d = -4d

3. Rewrite the problem so the variables are in ABC order

10c - 4d

Hope this helps :)

3(2x + 3) - 4x = -3<br> SHOW YOUR WORK PLEASE =D
Sati [7]
<span>3(2x + 3) - 4x = -3

STEP 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
(3)(2x) + (3)(3) + -4x = -3 (Distribute)
6x + 9 + -4x = -3
(6x + -4x) + (9) = -3 (Combine Like Terms)
2x + 9 = -3
2x + 9 = -3

STEP 2: Subtract 9 from both sides.
2x + 9 - 9 = -3 - 9
2x = -12

STEP 3: Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2 = -12/2
x = -6

FINAL ANSWER: x = -6</span>
