Answer: y = -4/5x - 12

1. First find slope. Since you are trying to find a line perpendicular to y = 5/4x + 10, the slope would be the negative reciprocal of 5/4x.

slope = - 4/5x

2. plug in (-5,-8) and the slope of -4/5 to the point slope form equation
(y-y2) = slope (x-x2)

= y+8=-4/5(x+5)

3. solve and simply y+8=-4/5(x+5)

y = -4/5x - 12 is your answer

Answer:

Statements                       Reasons

1. 2x + 11 = 15                    1. Given

2. 2x = 4                            2. Subtraction Property of Equality

3. X = 2                              3. Division Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation can be solved and its solution proven using algebraic theorems and properties. To create a proof, form two columns. Label one side Statements and the other Reasons.

Begin your proof listing the any information given to you. List as the reason - Given.

Then list the next step which here would be to subtract by 11 on both side. The reason is Subtraction Property of Equality. Subtraction is the inverse of addition. Inverse axiom is another acceptable reason.

Then divide both sides by 2. The reason is Division Property of Equality or Inverse axiom once again. See the proof below.

Statements                       Reasons

1. 2x + 11 = 15                    1. Given

2. 2x = 4                            2. Subtraction Property of Equality

3. X = 2                              3. Division Property of Equality

Which equation shows the correct use of the Distributive Property? <br> −4(32x−12)=−15
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

-128x + 48 = -15

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't any  choices to pick from but using the distributive property you will multiply the -4 by everything in the parenthesis.

-4(32x - 12) = -15

=-128x + 48 = -15.

Answer quickly, please. I need this. I will give brainliest to whoever answers first. You also get 25 points for this
sukhopar [10]
** DISCLAMIER** am not completely sure. Please do not use my answer unless you are very desperate.

since O,R correspond with A,N I think you half F on each side and add it to 11.2 so
10 divided by 2 = 5
7 is already half.
5 + 7 is 12
12 + 11.2 = 23.2

IF THIS IS WRONG TRY 17
reason for 17:
10 + 7 = 17
If you look at both lines they look the same length as A, N.
