Answer:

hey, there!

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is a point (-6,8) through which a line passes. And is perpendicular to the line y = 2x-4

The equation for point (-6,8) is,

(y-8)= m1(x+6)...........(i)

and given equation is y = 2x-4............(ii)

Now, from equation (ii).

slope (m2)= 2 { as equation (ii) is in the form of y= mx+c where m is a slope}.

Now, For perpendicular,

m1×m2= -1

m1×2= -1

Therefore, m1 = -1/2.

Putting, the value of m1 in equation (i).

(y-8) = -1/2×(x+6)

2(y-8)= -1(x+6)

2y - 16 = -x -6

x+2y-10 = 0......... is the required equation.

Hope it helps...

A principal of $2000 is placed in a savings account at 3% per annum compounded annually. How much is in the account after one ye
natita [175]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After one year

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2000(1+0.03/12)^12*1

=2000(1+0.0025)^12

=2000(1.0025)^12

=2000(1.0304)

=$2060.8

After two-years

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2060.8(1+0.03/12)^12*2

=2060.8(1+0.0025)^24

=2060.8(1.0025)^24

=2060.8(1.0618)

=$2188.157

After three years

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2188.157(1+0.03/12)^12*3

=2188.157(1+0.0025)^36

=2188.157(1.0025)^36

=2188.157(1.0941)

=$2394.063

-2x+3=-1+2 <br> (Algebra) solving for x. Please help!!
mario62 [17]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 3 = -1 + 2

=> -2x + 3 = 1

=> 1 = -2x + 3

=> 2x + 1 = 3

=> 2x = 3 - 1

=> 2x = 2

=> x = 2/2

=> x = 1

Describe how (2 cubed) (2 superscript negative 4) can be simplified.
irina [24]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(2 cubed) (2 superscript negative 4)

= (2³)(2^-4)

= (2³) (1 / 2⁴)

= (2³ * 1) / 2⁴

= 2³ / 2⁴

Both numerator and denominator has the same base. Thus, pick one of the bases

Also, in indices, division sign can be translated to subtraction

Therefore,

2³ / 2⁴

= 2^3-4

= 2^-1

= 1/2¹

= 1/2

(2³)(2^-4) = 1/2

Solve the system of equations.<br> 4x + y = 2<br> x - y=3
Luda [366]

Answer:

x = 1

y = -2

Explanation:

\bold{\begin{bmatrix}4x+y=2\\ x-y=3\end{bmatrix}}

  • Isolate x for 4x + y = 2: x = 2 - y / 4
  • Substitute x = 2 - y / 4

2 - y / 4 - y = 3

  • Simplify

2 - 5y / 4 = 3

  • Isolate y for 2 - 5y / 4 = 3: y = -2
  • For x = 2 - y / 4 substitute y = -2

x = 2 - (-2) / 4

2 - (-2) / 4 = 1

x = 1

  • x = 1, y = -2
