7:
Parallel lines have the same slope
y = -3x + b
Plug in the x and y values from the point
5 = -3(-4) + b
5 = 12 + b
-7 = b
Answer to 7: y = -3x -7
8:
Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes
y = -2x + b
Plug in x and y from the point
-6 = -2(7) + b
-6 = -14 + b
8 = b
Answer to 8: y = -2x + 8
Answer:
-5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Rational
Step-by-step explanation:
-9 is rational because 9 is a perfect square and all perfect squares are rational.
So first do 3(x+1) which is 3x+3 because you have to multiply the outside number by the stuff in side the parentheses. Then you do the 5(x-2)+7 and it should be 5x-10+7 so now your equation should be 3x+3=5x-10+7 now subtract the 3x from the 5x and now your equation should look like this: 3=2x-10+7. Then you add the 10 and the 7 so now your equation should look like this: 3=2x-3 because it's a -10 and a positive 7 it would be -3. So then you have to add the -3( which now becomes positive to the other 3 in front of the = sign. So now your equation should look like this: 6=2x. Now divide by 2 to get x by its self and now your answer should be 3=x or x=3.
