VZ is perpendicular to ZX. KM is perpendicular to QM.
First, you'd get x-2y=5 into y=mx+b form. Which would be done like this:
-2y=-x+5 (subtract x in order to get it to the other side
-2y/-2=-x/-2+5/-2 (Divide everything by -2 in order to isolate y)
y=1/2x+-5/2
Once you're done with that, you just have to replace the y-intercept, and find the negative reciprocal of our slope (1/2), which would be -2
This then makes your answer
y=-2x-2
-1 use mathpapa it will give you the answar
( 1 - x/100)^20 = 3843/55550
Taking logs
20 log (1 - x/100) = log (3843/55550)
log ( 1 - x/100) = log (3843/55550) / 20 = -0.0580007
1 - x/100 = 10^-0.0580007 = 0.875
x / 100 = 1 - 0.875 = 0.125
x = 12.5 Answer
