Y = -2/3x + 7.....the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All tht means is take the original slope, flip it, and change the sign. So we take -2/3....flip it making it -3/2.....change the sign making it 3/2. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(-5,6)....x = -5 and y = 6
now sub and find b, the y int
6 = 3/2(-5) + b
6 = -15/2 + b
6 + 15/2 = b
12/2 + 15/2 = b
27/2 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x + 27/2 <==

Please someone solve this problem <br>I really need answers ​
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

x = 50°

y = 50°

z = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

working out x:

angles on a straight line add up to 180°

x + 130° = 180°

subtract 130 on both sides

x = 180° - 130°

x = 50°

working out y:

two vertical lines means that both sides are equal, so both angles are also equal (it's an isosceles triangle). This means that y is the same angle as x = 50°

y = 50°

working out z:

the sum of a triangle add up to 180°

add up the angles of x and y and equate to 180°

50 + 50 + z = 180

100 + z = 180

subtract 100 on both sides

z = 180 - 100

z = 80°
