Answer:

m = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x-4

This is in slope intercept form

y = mx+b  m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 3 and the y intercept is -4

We want the slope of a line that is perpendicular

Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

Let m be the slope of the line that is perpendicular

3 * m = -1

Divide each side by 3

3m/3 = -1/3

m = -1/3

0.580 repeating as a fraction
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Write out your decimal as the numerator of a fraction:

0.50 /1

Multiply to remove the 2 decimal places:

0.50 /1 ×  100 /100=  50 /100

Find the Greatest Common Factor of 50 and 100:

GCF is 50

Divide both numerator and denominator by 50:

50 ÷ 50

100 ÷ 50 =  1 /2

therefore your answer is 1/2

Hope this helps! (づ ̄3 ̄)づ╭❤~

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers are x and y.

<u>Given:</u>

  • 3x + y = 22
  • y = 2x - 8

<u>Solve by substitution:</u>

  • 3x + 2x - 8 = 22
  • 5x = 22 + 8
  • 5x = 30
  • x = 6

<u>Find y:</u>

  • y = 2*6 - 8 = 12 - 8 = 4
