Answer:

The equation would be y = 2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, we first need to find the slope of the line between (-2, 5) and (2, 3). In order to do this, we use the slope formula.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (3 - 5)/(2 - -2)

m = -2/4

m = -1/2

Now that we have the original line with a slope of -1/2, we can tell a perpendicular line would have a slope of 2. This is because perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. Now we can use that slope and the given point in point-slope form to get the answer. Be sure to solve for y.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 7 = 2(x + 5)

y + 7 = 2x + 10

y = 2x + 3

Eric and Linda are paid 52.25 for they're work. Eric worked 3.5 hours, and Linda worked 2 hours. They split the money according
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

<u>$33.25</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking Eric's hours as a ratio to the total hours :

  • 3.5 : 3.5 + 2
  • 3.5 : 5.5
  • 3.5 x 2 = : 5.5 x 2
  • 7 : 11

Multiply the ratio into the amount paid :

  • 52.25 x 7/11
  • 4.75 x 7
  • <u>$33.25</u>

<u></u>

Eric's share of the money is <u>$33.25</u>
