Since B is perpendicular to A. We can say that the gradient of B will be -1/7 (product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines has to be -1).
Now we know that the equation for B is y=-(1/7)x + c with c being the y intercept.
Since the point isnt specified in the question, we could leave the equation like this.
But if there is a given point that B passes through, just plug in the x and y values into their respective places and solve to find c. That should give you the equation for b.
Now, to find the solution of x, we have 2 equations:
1) y=7x+12
2)y=-(1/7)x+c
In this simultaneous equation we see that y is equal to both the expressions. So,
7x+12=-(1/7)x+c
Now, since the value of c is not found, we cannot actually find the value of x, but if we would find c, we could also find x since it would only be a matter of rearranging the equation.
And there you go, that is your solution :)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the power of ten in standard form and do the multiplication.
2.09 × 10^5 = 2.09 × 100,000 = 209,000
9.4387 × 10^4 = 9.4387 × 10,000 = 94,387
1.3 × 10^-3 = 1.3 × 0.001 = 0.0013
Answer:
R___S___T
RT=RS+ST
39 = (23 - 2x) + (9x - 5)
39 =7x + 18
7x = 39 - 18
7x = 26
x = 26/7
x= 3.7
RS= 23 - 2x = 23 - 2(3.7) = 23 - 7.4 = 15.6
If went ST = 9x -5 = 9(3.7)- 5 = 33.3 - 5 = 28.3
I hope I helped you^_^
