Answer:
The correct choice is E
Step-by-step explanation:
Neither A, B, C, or D are correct, so the right answer must be E. By the way, E isn't shown in the picture.
Answer:
y=-
x+
Step-by-step explanation:
First, calculate the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the equation of line we are asked to find
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
=(2-(-4))/(-2-1)
=6/-3
=-2
in this equation the slope is 2, and to find the first equation, use y=mx+b
use the point (1, -4) to find b
-4=(2)(1)+b
-4=2+b
b=-6
the first equation of the line is y=2x-6
to find the x intercept of that line substitute 0 for y
0=2x-6
2x=6
x=3
the slope of a line perpendicular to this would be the opposite reciprocal of the slope which would be equal to -1/2
for the second equation of the line to pass thorugh the x-intercept of the first line, it must pass through (3, 0), so substitute and solve for b
y=mx+b
0=(-1/2)(3)+b
b=3/2
thus the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line through (1,-4) and (-2, 2) and passes through the x intercept of that line is y=-
x+3/2
Answer:
y = mx + b is slope-intercept form of the linear equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1) is point-slope form of the linear equation.
Ax + By = C (A ≥ 0) is standard form of the linear equation.

Step-by-step explanation:
7+10x-2x-2=-3
—-Combine like terms...10x-2x=8x and 7-2=5
8x+5=-3
——subtract 5 on both sides.. the 5’s will cancel each other and -3-5=-8
8x=-8
——Divide 8 on both sides...the 8’s will cancel out and -8 divided by 8 = -1
Answer: x = -1
The answer would be 32 miles (I think) if you set up a proportion you should get this answer.
