Answer:

a) x = 34

b) yes, it checks out

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 5 = 3(4 + 1/2x)

multiply both sides by 2 to eliminate fraction

2[2x - 5 = 3(4 + 1/2x)] = 4x - 10 = 24 + 3x

x - 10 = 24

x = 34

<u>check</u>

2(34) - 5 = 3(4 + 34/2)

68 - 5 = 3(4 + 17)

63 = 3(21)

63 = 63

Igoryamba

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is 2/5 and the slope of the new line will be -5/2 because the negative reciprocal creates a perpendicular line. Use the point-slope form to write the equation, then simplify and convert into the slope intercept form.

(y--2)=-5/2(x-2)

y+2=-5/2x+10/2

y=-5/2x+5-2

y= -5/2x+3
