Answer:

D. y = -1/4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is perpendicular, it will have a opposite reciprocal slope.

So, the slope will be -1/4.

Plug in this slope and the given point into y = mx + b, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

-6 = -1/4(12) + b

-6 = -3 + b

-3 = b

Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b

y = -1/4x - 3

So, the correct answer is D. y = -1/4x + 3

Answer:

  14.01, 493, 87

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 28 from both sides tells you the range of values you need to be looking at.

  28 + x > 42

  x > 14

Any values more than 14 will make the inequality true. Three of them are ...

I need help.<br> Math is really hard
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The value of x in terms of b is: \mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}

The value of x when b is 3 is: x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function: -2(bx-5)=16

First we need to find

The value of x in terms of b

We need to find value of x

-2(bx-5)=16

Multiply -2 with terms inside the bracket

-2bx+10=16

Subtract 10 from both sides

-2bx+10-10=16-10\\-2bx=6

Divide both sides by -2b

\frac{-2bx}{-2b}=\frac{6}{-2b}\\x=-\frac{6}{2b}

So, The value of x in terms of b is: \mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}

The value of x when b is 3

We have the equation for the value of x in terms of b:

\mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}

Put b = 3

x=-\frac{6}{2(3)}\\x=-\frac{6}{6}\\x=-1

So, The value of x when b is 3 is: x = -1
