Answer:

b/a

Step-by-step explanation:

ax+by=c

To find the slope solve for y

by = -ax+c

Divide by b

y = -a/b x + c/b

The slope intercept form is y = mx+b where m is the slope

The slope is -a/b

A perpendicular line has a slope that is the negative reciprocal

-1/ (-a/b)

-1 * -b/a

b/a

If (5x^4)(2x^6)=ax^b, what is the value of a-b?
ehidna [41]

(5x^4)(2x^6)=(5\cdot2)(x^4\cdot x^6)=10x^{4+6}=10x^{10}=ax^b

so

​a=10\qquad b=10

and

a-b=10-10=\boxed{0}

Which construction requires drawing only one arc with a compass?
Makovka662 [10]

If we have to construct any thing like perpendicular bisector, angle bisector, any angle. For example the primary angle constructed in a 60° angle. But even to construct a 60° angle we need to construct two arcs.

Rest of all the constructions need at least 2 arcs to be constructed.

The only construction that can be done by only one arc is constructing a circle.
