Solution

5(3x+2) -2(4x-1)
Expand the bracket first

(5*3x)+(5*2) (-2*4x)x(-2*-1)
15x+10-8x+2
Then you collect like terms
15x-8x+10+2
= 7x+11

The line with equation y=my+b is perpendicular to the line with equation y=16 - x/3. The value of m is ____?

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

m=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines intersect at 90 degrees or perpendicular angles. As such, their slopes are related. The slope of each line is the negative reciprocal of the other. For the equation, $y=16-\frac{x}{3}$ . The slope or $m=-\frac{1}{3}$ . This means the slope of the other line will be the negative reciprocal which is -(-3)=3
