first, spread the parenthesis. y+2=1/2x-1.5
second, add 1.5 to both sides. y+3.5=1/2x
third, multiply by 2. 2y+7=x
if you are solving for y, do not do the third step, instead, subtract by 3.5. y=x-3.5
hope this helps!
ANSWER: x=2y+7 or y=x-3.5
Answer:
115200
Step-by-step explanation:
80 Beats Per Minute <em><u>x</u></em> 60 Minutes (1 hour) <em><u>x</u></em> 24 Hours (1 Day) = 115200
In order to find the slop it is probably best to put the equation in y=mx+b form. This means to get y by itself on one side.
24x-9y=63 will then become -9y=63-24x in which y has been isolated.
Then you should divided by -9 to get the final form: y=24x/9 -63/9.
Now you can get the slope of the perpendicular line by taking the slope of the original equation and finding its reciprocal which is -9/24x. This is your answer.
Answer:
3(x - 5)(x + 1).
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 - 12x - 15
Dividing through by 3:
= 3(x^2 - 4x - 5)
We need 2 numbers whose sum is -4 and whose product = -5. That is -5 and +1 , so the factors are:
3(x - 5)(x + 1).
