Answer:

y = 7x/8 - 53/8

Step-by-step explanation:

P(3,-4)

x = -7y/8 + 3

Isolate y and translate to slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

x = -7y/8 + 3

x - 3 = -7y/8

8x - 24 = -7y

y = -8x/7 - 24/7

The slope of the equation is -8/7

The slope of the new equation will be perpendicular to the slope of the given equation which means it is the negative reciprocal.

y = mx + b where m = -1/(-8/7) = 7/8

y = 7x/8 + b

Plug in know values and solve for b:

-4 = 7(3)/8 + b = 21/8 + b

-4 - 21/8 = b

b = -32/8 -21/8 = -53/8

Plug in b into the equation:

y = 7x/8 - 53/8

Neep help pls, what is the answer????
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

No, According to triangle Inequality theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length given are 4 in., 5 in., 1 in.

We need to check whether with these lengths we can create triangular components.

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.

These must be valid for all three sides.

Hence we will check for all three side,

4 in + 5 in > 1 in. (It is a Valid Condition)

1 in + 5 in > 4 in. (It is a Valid Condition)

4 in + 1 in > 5 in. (It is not a Valid Condition)

Since 2 condition are valid and 1 condition is not we can say;

A triangular component cannot be created with length 4 in, 5 in, and 1 in by using triangle inequality theorem (since all three conditions must be valid).

Solve for x in the diagram below
ella [17]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + x + 100 = 180 (sum of angles on a straight line)

4x = 180-100

4x=80

divide both sides by 4

x=20
