Answer:
D. Y+5=-(1/2)*(x+3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular Lines are those with the following condition:
y=a*x+b (1)
y=c*x+d (2)
Where 'a' and 'c' are the respective slope
If These two lines are perpendicular, then
a=- 1/c
Equation (1) for our case is written as y=2x-8, meaning that a=2 and b = -8
Using those principles we have that the slope for our needed line ('c') has to be -(1/2).
Now we most use the given point to find the remaining term of the equation (d) so, evaluate (-3,-5) in eq (2) to have this:
-5=(-1/2)*(-3)+d
resulting that d=-5-(3/2)
Eq (2) is written now as the following: y= (-1/2)*x - (5+3/2)
Rearranging terms, we have the following:
y+5=(-1/2)*x-(3/2)
where you can obtain a more pretty expression:
y+5=(-1/2)*(x+3)

Answer:
The number of white horses is 52
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number of black horses
y ----> the number of white horses
we know that
----> equation A

----> equation B
Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

therefore
The number of white horses is 52
