Write an equation for the perpendicular line to the line whose equation is 4y-5x=20 that contains the point (-2,-3)

Answer:

4x + 5y = - 23

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

rearrange 4y - 5x = 20 into this form

add 5x to both sides

4y = 5x + 20 ( divide all terms by 4 )

y = \frac{5}{4} x + 5 ← in slope-intercept form

with slope m = \frac{5}{4}

given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m}, hence

m_{perpendicular} = - 1 / \frac{5}{4} = - \frac{4}{5}

y = - \frac{4}{5} x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 2, - 3) into the partial equation

- 3 = \frac{8}{5} + c ⇒ c = - \frac{23}{5}

y = - \frac{4}{5} x - \frac{23}{5} ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 5

5y = - 4x - 23 ( add 4x to both sides )

4x + 5y = - 23 ← in standard form

The exact value of x is 2.

<h3>What is linear equation?</h3>

A linear equation is a first-order (linear) term plus a constant in the algebraic form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. This is sometimes referred to as a "linear equation with two variables," where y and x are the variables.

8⁽¹/⁶⁾ x 2ˣ = 32⁽¹/²⁾

32⁽¹/²⁾ = 2⁵⁽¹/²⁾

32⁽¹/²⁾ = 2⁽⁵/²⁾

8⁽¹/⁶⁾ = 2³⁽¹/⁶⁾

8⁽¹/⁶⁾ = 2⁽¹/²⁾

8⁽¹/⁶⁾ x 2ˣ = 2⁽¹/²⁾ x 2ˣ

= 2⁽¹/²⁾+ˣ  

= 2⁽¹/²+ˣ⁾

since 8⁽¹/⁶⁾ x 2ˣ  = 32⁽¹/²⁾

= 2⁽⁵/²⁾

2⁽¹/²+ˣ⁾ = 2⁽⁵/²⁾

equate the powers

1/2+ x = 5/2

subtract 1/2 from both sides

x = 5/2 - 1/2

x = (5-1)/2

x = 4/2

x= 2

Therefore, x = 2 is the exact value of x.

Galina-37 [17]

Hey there :)

An exact answer cannot be given as it requires to reseach about banks and co-operatives in your locality. However, I can give you a hint.

Research banks or cooperatives in your location that has the greatest percentage in terms of investment or savings.

Let's say, for example, Bank ABC has 5% annual simple interest in their Savings Account.

If you invest your entire money 100,000 pesos at Bank ABC with 5% annual interest for 20 years, you will earn an interest of:

Interest = Principal \times Rate \times Time

=  > Interest =100000 \times 0.05 \times 20yrs

=  > Interest = 100000

Hence, after investing at Bank ABC for 20 years, you will earn 100,000 pesos on top of your principal/invested amount that is 100,000 pesos. Your money will become 200,000 pesos now.

So, with this, find a bank/cooperative that has the highest return rate in your location. Once you have decided bank/cooperative, research further with regards to the background of the company, other services offered, application requirements, etc.

Four rays meet at a common endpoint. In a complete sentence, describe the relevant angle relationships in the diagram. Set up an
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding all angles in this diagram sould get you 360. Because of this, we can use inverse operations to solve this. Subtract 90 and 60 from 360 to get 210. Now, the equation is 15x=210. Dividing both sides by 15 gets you 14. Hope this helps!
