Answer:

y - 20 = (-1/5)(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is 5.  The slope of any line perpendicular to the given line is the negative reciprocal of the given slope:  

Slope of perpendicular line here is -1/5.

We use the point-slope formula as a framework here:

y - 20 = (-1/5)(x - 5)

A student claims that 8^3 x 8^-5 is greater than 1. Explain whether the student is correct or not.
nlexa [21]
Remember:
a^m * a^n=a^(m+n)
a^-m=1/a^m


8³ x 8⁻⁵=8³⁻⁵=8⁻²=1/8²=1/64<1

Answer: the student is not correct, because 1/64<1, and 8³ x 8⁻⁵=1/64.
