7 0

Answer:

7 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you're a subtracting a negative, ti cancels each other out and ends up in addition. So it's 5 1/6+2 2/3. And to add fractions the denominators must be the same.

Thus, you multiple 2/3 * 2= 4/6. So 5+2=7.

And 1/6+4/6=5/6.

Therefore the answers is 7 5/6.

Lines l and m are perpendicular. if the slope of line m is -4/3, what is the slope of line l?

azamat

Since they are perpendicular the slopes of the two lines must be opposite (meaning they must have opposite signs such as "1" and "-1") as well as be reciprocals (meaning the fraction must be flipped, in example with this problem as the reciprocal of "-4/3" is "-3/4")

the slope of line L must be 3/4

What is an equation for the line that passes through (-2,-3) with a slope of -1/2?

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line use the point slope form of a line substituting m = -1/2 and the point (-2,-3).

$y -y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y --3=-\frac{1}{2}(x--2)\\y+3 = -\frac{1}{2}(x+2)$

Convert to standard form by applying the distributive property and rearranging the terms.

$y + 3 = -\frac{1}{2}(x+2)\\y+3 = -\frac{1}{2}x -1\\2y + 6 = -x -2\\x+2y + 6 = -2\\x + 2y = -8$

The equation x +2y = -8 is the same equation as 4y + 2x = -16 just doubled----> 2x + 4y = -16
