Answer:

The third option, y=(-1/3)x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a line perpendicular to an equation, you find the negative reciprocal of the slope. For instance, if you have an equation y=4x+5, the negative reciprocal is y=(-1/4)x+5. That is the equation to find a line perpendicular to this.

If you want to find a line parallel to the equation y=4x+5, all you have to do is come up with another equation that has the same slope. So, y=4x+8 would be a line parallel to the equation y=4x+5.

What is -2√20-√125 in simplest radical form

solong [7]

√20 the prime factors are 2, 2, 5 so
-2 * √4 *√5
-2*2*√5
-4√5 is the first part ,
now for √125, use prime factorization ,
all prime factors that make up 125 is
5, 5, 5 so √125 can be separated to √25√5 and √25 = 5 so the second part is 5√5.
now -4√5 - 5√5 = -9√5.
therefore answer is -9√5

Write the decimal as a fraction in simplest form. 0.25 (with 25 repeating)

zlopas [31]

1/4, because you disregard the repeating 25s and round, and 25 x 4 is one hundred, so simplified it's 1/4.

There are 10 men and 14 women in.Kthleen's math class.what is the ratio of women to the total number of students in the class?

ahrayia [7]

The ratio can be determined as,

$\begin{gathered} \text{Ratio}=\frac{14}{10+14} \\ =\frac{14}{24} \\ =\frac{7}{12} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the requried ratio is 7:12.
