It is c. Because the original slope is -3 and perpendicular is opposite. So the perp slope is 1/3. C is the answer.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A: You can combine like terms. 2x + 3x = 5x. 2.5 + 3 = 5.5 A = 5x - 5.5
B: You can use distributive property. 5x - 5.5
C: If you use the distributive property you get 5x + 27.
D: D is 5x - 5.5
So the only one that does not equal 5x - 5.5 is C.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
B) 5x/x +3/x
Step-by-step explanation:
Choice B is the only choice showing a correct denominator: x.
Here, the "first step" is apparently to divide <em>each term</em> by the denominator. This is reasonable when the denominator is only one term.
(I'd say the first step is to divide the <em>first term</em> by the first term of the denominator.)
