I need a normal answer not a equation

Mathematics

Answer:

PQ = 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

You must use the addition property of equality, and subtract 16 from the of the 5x, and add it to the other side.

After that, you have 5x = 16

You then divide both sides by 5.

5x/5 = 1x = x

16/5 = 3.2

x = 3.2

Therefore, the side 'PQ' is equal to 3.2

The equation of line WX is 2x + y = -5. What is the equation of a line perpendicular to line WX in slope-intercept form that con
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The third choice is the one you want

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are to write the equation of a line perpendicular to WX, we first must determine what the slope of the WX is, because the line perpendicular to WX has a slope that is the flip of the slope of WX with the opposite sign.  Solving for y takes care of finding the slope of WX:

2x + y = -5 so

y = -2x - 5

The slope is -2.  That means that the reciprocal slope is 1/2.  Using that slope along with the coordinates x = -1 and y = -2, we first write the line using point-slope form and then solve it for y.  Start by filling in the m, the x value and the y value:

y - (-2) = \frac{1}{2}(x-(-1))

Getting rid of the double negatives gives us:

y+2=\frac{1}{2}(x+1)

Distributing then gives us:

y+2=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}

And finally solving for y (I am going to express the 2 on the left as 4/2 when I move it by subtraction in order to add those fractions):

y=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{4}{2}

And the final equation in slope-intercept form is:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{3}{2}

Joanne's Dress Shop received an invoice dated July 25 for $1,400, with terms of 2/10, 1/15, n/60. On August 8, Joanne's Dress Sh
ss7ja [257]

The actual amount that should be credited is $757.58.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that,

2% Discount if paid in 10 days.

1% Discount if paid in 15 days, (but greater that 10 days)

Net due in 60 days.

That is,

\bold{1400\times0.98 = 1372} will close the acount on days 1-10

\bold{1400\times0.99 = 1386} will close the acount on days 11-15

And August 8 is Day 15 and falls under the 1% discount rule.

Therefore, we have to divide the partial payment by the complement of the discount rate.

\bold{\Rightarrow\frac{750}{0.99} = 757.58} from the balance, and \bold{1400.00 - 757.58 = 642.42} is due by day 60.

How do you the equation of the line that passes through x-intercept (–8, 0) and undefined slope?
kifflom [539]
If the slope is undefined, then your line is a vertical line since vertical lines can have no slope (they don't have any lateral movement). Because it must pass through (- 8, 0), x must = - 8.

Your equation is x = - 8

Which ordered pair in the form (a, b) is a solution of this equation?
Evgen [1.6K]

3a - 4b = 21


check (-2 , -3)


3(-2) -4(-3) =21


-6 +12  = 21


6 does not = 21  so NO


check (0 , 7)


3(0) -4(7) =21


0-28=21


-28 does not equal 21  so NO


check (-3 , -2)


3(-3) -4(-2) =21


-9 +8  = 21


1 does not = 21  so NO


check (7 , 0)


3(7) -4(0) =21


21  = 21
