5/4. first, convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction to get 5/2. multiply the 5/2 to the 1/2. multiplying the numerators gets you 5. the denominators being multiplied gets you 4. 5 is the new numerator, 4 is the new denominator. 5/4 is in simplest form
1. Subtract 8 from both sides
2. Simplify to get x= -23
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
It is 9

Y = 1/2x - 3. Slope here is 1/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip the slope and change the sign. So the perpendicular line will have a slope of -2.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(1,-1)...x = 1 and y = -1
now we sub and find b, the y int
-1 = -2(1) + b
-1 = -2 + b
-1 + 2 = b
1 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -2x + 1
