Answer:

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the given equation for y, you have ...

  2x +4y = -64

  4y = -2x -64

  y = -1/2x -16

The coefficient of x is the slope of the given line: -1/2. The slope of the perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal of this:

  -1/(-1/2) = 2

The slope of the perpendicular line is 2.

Suppose line n has a slope of 5/7 and passes through (4,8). what is the equation for n in point-slope form?
Olegator [25]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y-8=\dfrac{5}{7}(x-4)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m - slope

We have the slope m=\dfrac{5}{7} and the point (4,\ 8).

Substitute:

y-8=\dfrac{5}{7}(x-4)

A rectangle has a length that is 12 centimeters longer than its width. Let x represent the width of the rectangle. Which of the
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if x is the size of the width, then that means that the length would be x + 12.

now area is = to L * W

that means that (x) * (x+12) = Area

so multiply it out,

you get that x^2 + 12x = Area
