Hello, I will try my best to explain this to you as simple as possible.
First, you have to pass the -4 to the other side, like this:
-3 1/2x - 4 = -38 1/8
↓
-3 1/2x = -38 1/8 - 4
Then, you have to subtract -4 from -38 1/8, like so:
-3 1/2x = -38 1/8 - 4
↓
-3 1/2x = -42 1/8
My preferred method for this next step is this:
-3 1/2x = -42 1/8
↓
-7/2x = 337/8
Then, we divide:
-7/2x = -42 1/8
↓
x = (-337/8) / (-7/2)
x = 12.0357142857
So, the answer is: 12.0357142857.
Hope this helped! c:
16x^2=9
x^2=9/18
x=sqrt(9/16)
x=3/4,-3/4
so the root of the quadratic equation are 3/4 and -3/4
Answer:
y=1/2x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
perpendicular lines have a neg. reciprocal for the slope.
for example:
in this equation y=-2x+1
-2 is the slope and the negative reciprocal would be 1/2
hence, the slop of our new line is 1/2
y=1/2x+b
we can substitute the coordinates given for x and y:
2=1/2(8)+b
2=4+b
-2=b
hence the new equation is y=1/2x-2
