Answer:

850.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number at the start be x shoes. Then:

x - 50 - 0.64(x - 50) = 288

x - 0.64x - 50 + 32 = 288

0.36x = 288 + 50 - 32

0.36x = 306

x = 306/0.36 =  850.

What is the additive inverse of the complex number –8 + 3i?
Lady bird [3.3K]
Choices:
–8 – 3i
–8 + 3i
8 – 3i
<span>8 + 3i

The additive inverse of the complex number a + bi is -(a+bi) = -a - bi

In this case, a = -8 and b = 3i

a + bi = -8 + 3i
additive inverse is:  -(-8+3i) = +8 - 3i

The additive inverse of the complex number -8 + 3i is 8 - 3i. The 3rd choice.

Solve this equation: y-3x+15=10
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

10=10

Step-by-step explanation:

y-3x+15=10

y=3x-15+10

y=3x-5

subtitute y=3x-5 in the above equation:

3x-5-3x+15=10 (3x will be eliminated with -3x)

-5+15=10

10=10

(i hope this is the way you want the answer but at least I think it is correct)

Line l is perpendicular to line m with equation 2x + 5y = 20. line l intersects line m at (-5,6).
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The equation is y = -2/5x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the slope of the line. In order to do so, solve the first equation for y.

2x + 5y = 20

5y = -2x + 20

y = -2/5x + 4

This gives us a slope of -2/5. Given that information, we now can plug the slope and point into point-slope form and get the final equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 6 = -2/5(x - -5)

y - 6 = -2/5(x + 5)

y - 6 = -2/5x - 2

y = -2/5x + 4
