Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

the line is exactly opposite like a mirror image when it is perpendicular,

so the gradient of the first line is 1 (because there is no number beside x, the gradient would be 1), that means the opposite of 1 would be -1.

The answer is -1

Answer:

-1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a line can be written y = mx + b where m is the slope.

y = x + 5 can be written as y = 1x + 5 which shows that the slope is 1.

If the slope of a line  is m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is -1/m.

So the required slope is -1/1 = -1.

Paulie ordered 250 pens and 250 pencils to sell for a theatre club fundraiser. The pens cost 11 cents more than the pencils. If
Korolek [52]
Remember that cents has a decimal when put in an equation.
250(x + 11) + 250x = 4250
250x + 2750 + 250x = 4250
500x + 2750 = 4250
500x = 1500
x = 3 cents (pencils)
x+11 = 14 cents (pens)
