Answer:

y = (1/2)x + 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation, y = -2x+2, is given; its slope is -2.  We are to find the equation of a line which is perpendicular to this given line; the slope of the perpendicular has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of that of the given line.  Thus, the slope of the perpendicular is                

                                                                        -1

                                                           m = -------------- = +1/2.

                                                                        -2

This perpendicular is to pass through (-5,-2).  Plugging these x- and y-coordinates and the slope m = 1/2 into the point-slope formula for a straight line, we get:

y-[-2] = (1/2)(x-[-5]), or y + 2 = (1/2)(x + 5).

This is the correct answer.  If, however, you want this equation in slope-intercept form, do the following:

Mult. all three terms of y + 2 = (1/2)(x + 5 by 2 to eliminate the fraction 1/2:

2y + 4 = x + 5.  Solve this for y:  Subtract 4 from both sides, obtaining:

2y = x + 1.  Finally, multiply all terms by 1/2:  y = (1/2)x + 1/2

The function f(x) = –x2 – 4x + 5 is shown on the graph. On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens down. It goes through (negative
madam [21]

The true statement is:

"The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

<h3>Which statements are true?</h3>

Here we have the quadratic function:

f(x) = -x^2 - 4x + 5

And we want to see which of the given statements are true.

The first one is:

"The domain is al real numbers less than or equal to -2"

This is false, for all quadratic functions the domain is the set of all real numbers (unless the domain is defined).

The second statement is:

" The domain of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

Also false

Third one:

" The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to −2"

The range of a quadratic function with a negative leading coefficient will be the set of all the values smaller than the y-value of the vertex.

In this case, the quadratic function is:

f(x) = -x^2 - 4x + 5

So the vertex is at:

x = 4/(2*-1) = -2\\

Then the y-value of the vertex is:

f(-2) = -(-2)^2 - 4*(-2) + 5 = -4 + 8 + 5 = 9

So the range is the set of all real numbers less than or equal to 9.

So the above statement is false, and the final one:

"The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

Is the true statement.
