The simplified form is 20x^2. Because you 2x*2, you get 4x. You multiply that by 5x, and then you get your answer.
To find a perpendicular slope (or line), the slope (in this case 4x) must be the opposite sign and its reciprocal, which is basically the fraction flipped upside down. Since 4 is technically 4/1, that fraction flipped is 1/4. And since you need to flip the sign too, instead of it being a positive number, it's negative. Your answer is -1/4x-8
It depends if the negative number is bigger than the positive number your answer will be a negative number/answer for example -9 - 4 your answer would be -5 since the negative number is bigger it will be the other way around for a positive number if the positive number is bigger than the negative number your answer will be positive for example 5 - -2 = 3 or positive 3.
Answer:
x5y2−x2y4
Step-by-step explanation:
There are no like terms. Therefore the answer is correct. =x^5y^2−x^2y^4
