You question isn't clear, but I assume that you are asking for the slop of a line parallel to y=-(5/4)(x)+7.
The line parallel would have a slop of -5/7 and the line perpendicular would have a slop of 5/7.
The difference between the two answers is the sign of the two slopes, one is positive the other is negative
Answer:
The distributive property allows you multiply a sum in parenthesis by multiplying each addend separately, then add the products.
Step-by-step explanation:
How to use the distributive law example.
2(x+4) = 16
To use the distributive law in this example multiply 3 by all terms in the parenthesis. Multiply 2 and x, then 2 and 4 to open the parenthesis.
2x+8=16
That is how you use the distributive law.
To continue solving, subtract 8 from both sides.
2x+8-8=16-8
2x=8
Divide 2 from both sides.
2x/2=8/2
x=4
Hope this helps!
If not, I am sorry.
Answer:
c(2)=6
Step-by-step explanation:
The explicit formula for the sequence is:
To find the 2nd term, we substitute n=2 to get:
We simplify to obtain:
This is the same as:
We cancel common factors to get:
1. Distributive Property on the left side
2x-24=5x+9
2. Subtract 9 from the right side and do the same on the left side
2x-33=5x
3. Subtract 2x from both left and right sides
-33=3x
4. Divide 3 from Borge left and right sides
-11=x
Answer: x = -11
