1/4 is equal to 2/8.

2/8+1/8=3/8

Carla used 3/8 of the ribbon in all. So, 5/8 of the ribbon is left.

I hope this helps :)

Which expression is equivalent to (2^3)^-5

Ostrovityanka [42]

Hi!

You didn't list the options, but I think I know the answer. Let me know if my answer isn't listed! :)

$(x^{3} )^{-5}$
We need to multiply the exponents.
3 · -5 = -15

The answer is $2^{-15}$

Hope this helps! :)

Solve each system by elimination. 3x - 2y = 1 2x + 2 y = 14

Paha777 [63]

Add 3 and 12 , cancel -2 y+2y and and add 14 and 14
3x-2y=14
12x+2y=14
15x=28
Divide both sides by 15
X=28/15
3x 28/15 -2y=14
Y=-21/5
(X,y)=28/15, -21/5
3x 28/15 -2x(-21/5)=12x 28/15 +2x(-21/5)=14
14=14=14
(x, y)=(28/15, -21/5) is the answer

a line is perpendicular to y=-2x+5 and intersects the point (-4,2). what is the equation of this perpendicular line?

german

Answer:

y = 1/2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is perpendicular to y = -2x + 5 then the new line has a slope of 1/2.

So solve for b: using y = mx + b

2 = 1/2(-4) + b

2 = -2 + b

4 = b

Put it all together

y = 1/2x + 4
