put the equation 2x - y = 16 in the form of y = mx + c
2x - y = 16
2x = 16 + y
y = 2x - 16
the slope of this line is 2. the slope of a line perpendicular to it would be the negative reciprocal of 2. in other words, it would multiply with 2 to give -1.
you can form this equation with that info
2x = -1
x = -1/2
OR
you can flip and change the sign (numerator) of 2/1
2/1
= -1/2
Here how i found my answer.
There is only one solution in the given equation -y2 − [-5y − y(-7y − 9)] − [-y (15y + 4)] = 0. In solving this problem, apply first PEMDAS (parenthesis, exponents,multiplication, division, addition, subtraction). Then equation will transform into -y2+5y-7y2-9y+15y2+4y=0. Combine terms with same power and achieve 7y2=0. Divide both sides with 7 and perform square root of zero. Since the root is zero, we have one solution of the given equation which is y=0.
The measurement of x is 3.9999
Hi there :-)
The formula of the simple interest is
I=prt
your question ask to find r which is interest rate you do that by dividing each side by (pt) to get
R=I÷pt
Now solve to get the interest rate
R=562.5÷(1,500×5)
R=0.075×100 multiply by 100 to get it as percentage
R=7.5%
Hope it helps:-)
