Solve. -7x + 29 = 6 (8+3x)

Hi there

Your answer is

x = -.76 OR -19/25

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x +29 = 6(8+3x)

-7x +29 = 48 + 18x

-18x

-25x +29 = 48

-29

-25x = 19

/-25

x = -.76 OR -19/25

congruent segments

step-by-step explanation:

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
