Answer:

-1/4 (2x - 5y)

Step-by-step explanation:

For us to factor -1/4 out of -1/2x -5/4y

We will have to multiply the values in bracket by the reciprocal of -1/4 i.e -4 as shown

-1/2x - 5/4 y

= -1/4 (-4(-1/2x) - (-4)(-5/4y))

= -1/4 (4/2 x - 20/4 y)

= -1/4 (2x - 5y)

Hence the factored expression is -1/4 (2x - 5y)

2. Find an equation for the line with slope = 0 that passes through the point (-5, 7).

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

2. y = 7

3. x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope 0 is when the line is horizontal.. has a constant coordinate

(-5,7) lies on the line so the x-coordinate is 7

Equation: y = 7

A vertical line has all same x-coordinates.

Since (4,-2) is on the line, every point had x-coordinate of 4.

Equation: x = 5
