If we have a number represented by n, we have 20 is equal to, so 20=something. That something is "5 less than twice a number". 5 less than something means something-5, and something-5=20. Since 5 is less than twice a number, and twice a number is n+n=2n, we have 2n-5=20
Actually solving the problem, we can start by adding 5 to both sides, resulting in 2n=25. Next, we can divide both sides by 2 to get n=12.5

What equation is perpendicular to y=2x-3 and<br> passes through (-1, 2)?
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

\[y=-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}\]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the given line: \[y=2x-3\]

Slope of the line = \[2\]

Slope of the perpendicular line = \[-\frac{1}{2}\]

So the equation of the perpendicular line:

\[y=-\frac{1}{2}x+c\]

This passes through the point (-1,2).Substituting in the equation:

\[2=-\frac{1}{2}*(-1)+c\]

=> \[c=2+\frac{1}{2}\]

=> \[c=\frac{5}{2}\]

So the equation of the line :

\[y=-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}\]
