So the equation has to pass through (6,-1) and be perpendicular to y = -2x + 8.
The slope is -2, and to get the slope of a line perpendicular to another line you have to find the negative reciprocal of that slope. That means -2 is equal to 
-2/1, and if you flip those numbers and find the opposite of that number making it positive, the slope of a line perpendicular to it is 1/2.
But the line also has to pass through (6,-1), so we have to find the y-intercept of the new line.
To do that, you multiply 6(the x) by the 1/2(the slope) and get 3. Then you subtract 3(previous answer) from -1(the y) and get -4. That means the y-intercept is -4!
All that's left is to build the equation with this information. The equation is: 
y = -4 + 1/2x

Answer:

to find the sale price, you need to find what 34% of 82 is.

82 x 0.34 = 27.88

subtract that from the original price

82 - 27.88 = $54.12

you could also multiply 82 by (1 - .34) to get the same answer

82 x (.66) = $54.12

sale price is $54.12

hope this helps:)

AveGali [126]
When an account is rounded off to its nearest dollar will change based on the place value. For example, the given account of money if $ 56 730, then it will be rounded to its nearest ten thousands. Then the given amount will be rounded to $57,000 in where the given money rounded up and gain up to $300. But if the money will be rounded with its nearest hundreds, the money will become $ 56,700. Notice that the given money rounded down and lost $30 dollars.
