<span>Two lines are parallel if their slope is the same.
You want to write 8x + 4y = 5 in the form y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b is the y-intercept.
We need to isolate y in the given equation. The number next to x is the slope.
8x + 4y = 5
4y = -8x + 5

y = (-8x +5)/4
y = -2x + 5/4
The slope of the line we want is -2.
Two lines are perpendicular if the slope of the first line times the slope of the second line produces a product of negative one.
Since our slope is -2, we know that -2 times 1/2 yields -1.
The slope of the line perpendicular is 1/2. </span>

What is 1/5 cubed. Say how to solve the problem
ICE Princess25 [194]
When you cube or square a number it means to multiply a number by itself a certain amount of times. So when you square a number you multiply that same number together twice and when cubing a number you multiply that same number three times. In your case multiply 1/5 like this: 1/5 x 1/5 x 1/5

The function y= 5^x passes through the point
wlad13 [49]
The correct answer is c :)
the point is described by two variables: x and y. it is written like that: (x, y). so the first variable in brackets is the x variable. the other is y. so pick every point a-d, put these values into the equation, solve it and check if the values before and after = are the same. if so - you are correct!
look:
c) (1, 5) so x=1, y=5
equation: y=5^x
putting values: 5=5^1 and this is true!
