Solving for y, we can start by expanding to get y-3=5x-20. Next, we can add 3 to both sides (to separate y), resulting in y=5x-17. To find the slope in the equation y=mx+b, you simply find what you multiply x by, which is 5 in this case. To find a perpendicular slope, you start by making the slope (5 in this case) negative. Next, we find the reciprocal of the number. Since -5 can be written as -5/1, the reciprocal and therefore perpendicular slope is -1/5
Jerry worked 5 hours. Jaun worked 15 hours. Marcia worked 8 hours.
The beetle ate everything except the front cover of volume one and the back cover of volume four.
The thickness of the front cover of volume one and the back cover of volume four = 0.5 cm + 0.5 cm = 1 cm.
Total distance covered by the books = 4 x 8cm = 32 cm.
Therefore, total distance travelled by the beetle is 32 - 1 = 31 cm.
Answer:
the answer is (-4,1) in point form and or x= -4, y=1 in equation form.
