<span>2a(5-b)=3b+7

<em>[open bracket]</em>
10a - 2ab = 3b + 7

<em>[solve for b, so we need to move all terms with b to the left]</em>
<em>[-3b on both sides]</em>
10a - 2ab - 3b = 3b + 7 - 3b
10a - 2ab - 3b = 7

<em>[move all those without b to the right]</em>
<em>[-10a on both side]</em>
10a - 2ab- 3b - 10a = 7 - 10a
-2ab - 3b = 7 - 10a

<em>[divide by -1 through to change b to be positive]</em>
2ab + 3b = 10a - 7

<em>[take b out as the common factor]</em>
</span>b(2a + 3) = 10a - 7<span>

<em>[divide by (2a+3) through]</em>
b = (10a -7)/(2a+3)

Segment AB is on the line y − 4 = −5(x − 1), and segment CD is on the line y − 4 = one fifth(x − 5).
never [62]

Answer:

They are perpendicular because they have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of −5 and one-fifth.

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is the number next to x

Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y=2x-7 that passes through (3,1)
Finger [1]

Answer:

y=-1/2x-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

For this, you need to use the point slope formula, (y-y1)=m(x-x1). The slope, m, would be -1/2 since the line we're looking for is perpendicular (meaning the slope is the negative reciprocal of the original slope). The x1 would be 3, and the y1 would be 1.

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

(y-1)=-1/2(x-3)

y-1=-1/2x-3/2

y=-1/2x-1/2
