A. Judy made a mistake between Steps 1 and 2
To factor

, you have to factor it as

, not

, because that will leave an extra 6x because of 8x - 2x.
For this case we have the following expression:
-9x ^ -1y ^ -1 / -15x ^ 5 y ^ -3
For power properties we have:
-9x ^ (- 1-5) y ^ (- 1 - (- 3)) / - 15
Rewriting we have:
9x ^ (- 6) y ^ (- 1 + 3) / 15
3x ^ (- 6) y ^ (2) / 5
3y ^ 2 / 5x ^ 6
Answer:
3y ^ 2 / 5x ^ 6Note: answer is not between the options. Rewrite the expression again, or the options.
Answer: y = 4x/3 - 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as
y = mx + c
Where
c represents the y intercept
m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
The given line, L1 passes through A(6, - 7) and B(- 6, 2). The slope of line L1 is
m = (2 - - 7)/(- 6 - 6) = 9/ -12 = - 3/4
If two lines are perpendicular, it means that the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line.
Therefore, the slope of line L2 passing through the midpoint, M is 4/3
The formula determining the midpoint of a line is expressed as
[(x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2]
Midpoint, M = [(6 + -6)/2 , (- 7 + 2)/2]
= (0, - 5/2]
This means that the y intercept of line L2 is - 5/2
The equation of L2 becomes
y = 4x/3 - 5/2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The equation of the line into slope intercept form is equal to

where
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
In this problem we have


substitute and solve for b



The equation of the line is equal to
