Answer: -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

I wrote the equation y-3=3/2(x-4) in slope-intercept form. It's y=3/2x-5, so the slope is 3/2.

To find the perpendicular slope, I found the opposite reciprocal. The reciprocal of 3/2 is 2/3 and the opposite of 2/3 is -2/3

Follow the process of completing the square to solve x^2 - 10x + 8 = 0. What is the value of the constant that will be isolated
My name is Ann [436]
To solve using completing square method we proceed as follows:
x^2-10x+8=0
x^2-10x=-8
but
c=(b/2)^2
c=(10/2)^2=25
thus we can add this in our expression to get
x^2-10x+25=8+25
factorizing the LHS we get:
(x-5)(x-5)=33
(x-5)^2=33
getting the square roots of both sides we have:
x-5=+/-√33
x=5+/-√33

Amanda only has $30 to buy pens and notebooks. Each pen costs $2. Each notebook coats $3. Which of the following graph represent
sineoko [7]

Answer:

3p + 8n,    12p + 2n,    9p+4n,    6p+6n

8 columns bar graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

$2 = pen

$3 = notebook

This could be written as a bar graph in multiples of $6.00 along y axes.

3 pens + 8 notebooks. Then 12 pens + 2 notebooks.

Then 9 pens + 4 notebooks . Then 6 pens + 6 notebooks

3p + 8n,    12p + 2n,    9p+4n,    6p + 6n

3p = $6

8n = $24

12p = $24

2n = $6

9p = $18

4n = $12

6p = $12

6n = $18

and so on...

I need help with a MathsWatch question!
KIM [24]
To find the area of a circle, you do π × diameter (in this case 10). They have told you to use 3.142 as π, so you do 3.142 × 10 = 31.42. Because it's a semi-circle, you need to halve 31.42 to get 16.21, which is the answer
