Answer:
B; (2,-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation of a straight line is;
y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
So from the question, when we look at the given equation, its slope is -1/2
mathematically, when two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1
thus;
m1 * m2 = -1
m2 * -1/2 = -1
-m2 = -2
m2 = 2
The general equation form is;
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
where (x1,y1) = (4,0)
y-0 = 2(x-4)
y = 2x - 8
So, now we look at the point that will work for this equation
For the line that will work, if we substitute its x-value, we get the y-value
Let us take a look at option B
y = 2(2) -8 = 4-8 = -4
we can see that (2,-4) works

3/4 * 4/1 = 12/4 = 3
or you can use the butterfly method on the fours and get
3/1 * 1/1 = 3
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
y = 2x + 1
4x - 2y = 4
Substitute y = 2x + 1 into 4x - 2y = 4
4x - 2(2x + 1) = 4
4x - 4x - 2 = 4
0x = 4 + 2
0x = 6
Anything to the multiple of zero is zero. Hence 0x = 0, and 0 ≠ 6
So there is no solution to the equation.
