First factor the numerator
b^2-6b+8/b-4 * b+8/b-2
u will get
(b-2)(b-4)/(b-4)*(b-2)*b+8
those will cancel out each other will left only
b+8<span />
Answer:
Equation of line is y=(12/5)x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of line AB is -5/12. The line passing X is perpendicular to line AB and hence have a slope of 12/5. The slope intercept form is given by y=mx+c.
Now, point X satisfies the equation. Plugging in the slope of the line we end up with
y=(12/5)*x+c, now to find c
-10=(12/5)*(-5)+c, c=2
Equation of line is y=(12/5)x+2
1/2 because there is 7 girls and 7 boys in total
