<span>8 - 2b = -2/3(12b + 6)
8 - 2b = -8b -4
8 + 4 = -8b + 2b
12 = -6b
b = -12/6
b = -2

So, your final answer is b = -2</span>

Find an equation of the line perpendicular to the graph of 14x-7=1 that passes through the point at (-2,4)
wolverine [178]

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular, then the product o their slopes is equal to minus one

so

m1*m2=-1

Step 1

<u>Find the slope of the given line</u>

we have

14x-7=1\\14x=1+7

x=8/14 -------> x=4/7

This line is parallel to the y-axis

so

the perpendicular will be parallel to the x-axis

Step 2

The equation of the line perpendicular to the given line is the y-coordinate of the given point

Point (-2,4)

the equation is

y=4

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

y=4

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

The 300 people who were lined up outside the amusement park had all entered by 8:15 a.m. By 8:30, 550 more had entered. The numb
Tasya [4]

Answer:

250; p= 300 + \frac{50}{3}t

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 15 minutes passed, so there would be 250 people who came in

b. You would create a formula, where t = time after 8:15 (in minutes), while p = people who are at the parade

300 + \frac{250}{15}t = p, which equals p= 300 + \frac{50}{3}t

What is the value for y?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.<br><br> y=
Elodia [21]

Answer:

y = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AC = BC then the triangle is isosceles and the base angles are congruent, that is

∠A = ∠B = 50°, thus

∠C = 180 - (50 + 50) ← sum of angles in Δ = 180°

     = 180 - 100 = 80°, hence

5y + 10 = 80 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

5y = 70 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 14
