Answer:

y=-1/3x +29/3

Step-by-step explanation

We know that the line perpendicular to a slope of 3 is it's opposite reciprocal. So the slope is -1/3. Substitute -5 as X and 8 as Y so you get:

8= -5/3x +b.

B= 29/3

That's your answer.

If the fraction 396/x-10 is equivalent to -22, find the value of x. Show your work
Gemiola [76]

396 /x−10 =−22

Step 1: Multiply both sides by x-10.

396=−22x+220

−22x+220=396(Flip the equation)

−22x+220−220=396−220(Subtract 220 from both sides)

−22x=176

−22x /−22 = 176 /−22

(Divide both sides by -22)

x=−8

A business has $11,080 to spend on new laptops and tablet computers for its salespeople. The laptops cost $515 each. The tablets
tankabanditka [31]
Let x be the number of new laptops and y be the number of tablets that the company should buy. The equations that best show the given conditions are as follows,
                                   x + y = 30
                                515x + 285y = 11080
Solving simultaneously for the values of x and y gives an answer of x = 11 and y = 19.

Thus, the business should buy 11 laptops and 19 tablets.

As we know the volume of a prism is the product of height and base are

H(x)= height, A(x)= Base area 

Thus,
When volume = height(base area )

V(x)= A(x) · H(x)
       = (x²-2)(5)
       = 5(x² -2)
