Answer:
y = 1/7x + 88/7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx +b
since it is perpendicular you have to get the negative reciprocal of the slope which is 1/7
y = 1/7x + b then you would plug in your points
12 = 1/7(-4) + b and then solve for b
12 = -4/7 + b
+ 4/7
88/7 = b
y = 1/7x + 88/7
The distance formula to find the length of the sides... opposite sides equal it could be a rectangle or parallelogram all sides equal, square or rhombus adjacent equal, kite and then the slope is used to check angles if the product of the 2 lines in -1 the lines are perpendicular (right angle) the slopes of 2 lines are the same the sides are parallel. Hope it helps.
Answer:
$60
Step-by-step explanation:
The savings of Andries is $120 and his grandfather offered that he would give 50% of the amount he saved.
50% is actually just half of a given amount. So the short way to do this is just half the saving of Andries.

You can also think of it this way:

So we multiply that to the amount saved to solve for what is 50% of 120.
