Answer:
The equation of the line that is <em>perpendicular</em> to <em>y = 2x + 2</em> is
<em>y = -1/2x</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The original equation is y = 2x + 2; it's slope is <em>2</em>
Any line perpendicular to this equation would have to have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.
Example:
y = 2x + 2 so,
the perpendicular line's slope must be -1/2
Write a new equation with the new slope:
y = -1/2x + b
We know that this line passes through (8, -4)
Plug these coordinates in the equation to find b, the y-intercept
-4 = -1/2 (8) + b
-4 = -4 + b
0 = b
b = 0
We do not have to write y = -1/2x + 0
So, our final answer is "y = -1/2x is perpendicular to y = 2x+2"

Answer:
The ratio of flour to sugar is 2:1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let f = weight of a bag of flour
Let s = weight of a bag of sugar
3f+2s = 32
4f = 32
We have 2 equations and 2 unknowns, we can solve
4f=32
Divide by 4
4f/4 = 32/4
f = 8
Each bag of flour weights 8 pounds
Substitute this back into the first equation
3(8) +2s = 32
24+2s = 32
Subtract 24 from each side
24-24 +2s =32-24
2s = 8
Divide by 2
2s/2 = 8/2
s = 4 pounds
Flours weighs 8 pounds and sugar weights 4 pounds
We want the ratio of flour to sugar
Flour: sugar
8:4
We can divide each side by 4
8/4: 4/4
2:1
