slope of line y= -2x is -2

slope of line L= (-1)reciprocal of slope line y= -2x.

=( -1)(-1/2)

=1/2

since the L passes through (2,-4),

equation of line L: y-(-4)= 1/2(x-2)

2y+8 = x-2

x-2y-10=0

Hence equation of line L is x-2y-10=0

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

25 Months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make the equations first,

Plan A: 70x Plan B: 50x+500...

Now we make it into an equivalent equation:

70x=50x+500...

Then we solve:

70x=50x+500-50x -50x20x=500...

÷20 ÷20x=25...

To check if it's correct, we just plug it in:

70(25)=50(25)+500...

1750=1750...

Using the digits 0 to 9 at most one time each,fill in the boxes below to write equations whose solution is -1/2

Lena [83]

Answer:

The equations whose solutions are -1/2 are:

1. 4x + 1 = 6x + 2

2. 3x + 7 = 5x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the digits 0 to 9 at most one time each, the equations whose solutions are -1/2 are:

1. 4x + 1 = 6x + 2

-2x = 1

x = -1/2

2. 3x + 7 = 5x + 8

-2x = 1

x = -1/2
