Answer:

  y = 5/4x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is written in slope-intercept form. In this form, the slope is the coefficient of x, -4/5.

The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of this value:

  -1/(-4/5) = 5/4

The simplest such line is the one that goes through the origin:

  y = 5/4x

The length of a rectangle is 12 in. and the perimeter is 56 in. Find the width of the rectangle.
yuradex [85]

Answer:

W = 16 in

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2L + 2W

56 = 2(12) + 2W

56 = 24 + 2W

56-24 = 2W

32 = 2W

W = 32/2

W = 16 in

Solve the following quadratic equation<br>x+12x+36 - 16​
Doss [256]

Answer:

x= -2, x= -10

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 12x + 36 = 16

Began by setting this quadratic equation to 0. To do this, in this equation you must subtract.

x^2+12x+20=0

Next, we plug this into the quadratic formula, where a in this case is 1(there is nothing in front of x^2), b is equaled to 12(there is a 12 as the coeefficient of 12x), and c is equaled to 20.

The quadratic formula is as goes:

(-b+-(this means plus or minus)√b^2-4ac)/(2a)

After pluggin in and simplifying, the answer is x= -2 and x= -10
