Answer: B = 1

Step-by-step explanation: The first step is to add 6 to both sides of the equation to get -2b = -2

You then divide both sides by negative 2 so you can get a positive

dividing both sides by negative 2 will leave you with 1b = 1

b = 1

Art [367]

Answer:

5x - 8y = -48

Step-by-step explanation:

Move 5/8x to the y side to get (-5/8)x + y = 6. Multiply both sides by -8 to get 5x - 8y = -48.

A random number generator is used to select a number from 1 to 100 what is the probability of selecting number 151

topjm [15]

0.

It is impossible for 151 to be selected, as it is outside the range of numbers (1 to 100) that can be selected. Therefore the probability is 0.

Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y=2x-7 and passes through the point (6, 5)

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a equation of a line

we want to figure out the equation of the perpendicular line passes through the (6,5) points

in order to do so

recall that,

$\displaystyle m_{ \text{perpendicular}} = - \frac{1}{m}$

we got from our given equation that m=2

because equation of a line is y=mx+b

thus

$\displaystyle m_{ \text{perpendicular}} = - \frac{1}{2}$

remember that, when we want to figure out perpendicular line or parallel line we should the formula given by

$\displaystyle y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})$

since we got our perpendicular m is -½, $x_1=6$ and $y_1=5$ , substitute

$\displaystyle y - 5 = - \frac{1}{2} (x - 6)$

to get the perpendicular equation you should simplify the above equation to y=mx+b form

distribute -½:

$\displaystyle y - 5 = - \frac{1}{2} x + 3$

add 5 to both sides:

$\displaystyle y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 8$

hence,

our answer choice is B
