5=27
N=5
Explanation=there’s a difference between each number of 5
Eg:12-7=5
17-12=5
22-17=5
So that means 22+5=27 and n=5 since it is the number difference

You first have to set up the two equations. Y is equal to the total number of gallons in a tank and x is equal to the number of hours the tanks are filling.
Since the two equations both equal y I can make them equal each other. I then solved for x as you see and got -4.
Once I found my x value I now needed to find my y. You only needed to chose one equation to solve for y, so I decided to do the first one. I plugged in -4 where my x value currently was and solved for y. I got 2.
If you have any questions please comment!! Hope this helps!!
Answer:
y=.5x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
If one line is perpendicular to another that means that their slopes are negative reciprocals
which means that the slope (or m in y=mx+b) is .5
so far we have
y=.5x+b
to solve for b we plug in (8,2)
2=.5(8)+b
2=4+b
-2=b
therefore our equation is
y=.5x-2
The slope is 3 because if you find the rise and run of two points. Run=1 rise=3 (divide the rise by the run) which equals 3. The slope is 3
