Answer:

y = 2/5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines are lines which have negative reciprocal slopes of each other.

The line y = -5/2 x + 2 has slope -5/2. Therefore its perpendicular slope will be 2/5.

The equation can cross anywhere on the y-axis for its y-intercept since no specific point is given. Here I chose (0,0).

y = 2/5x

Charity is four times as old as her daughter. She is also six years younger than her husband. The sum of their ages ten years to

zubka84 [21]

Answer: Charity is 36 years old today.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Present age of daughter.

Age of Charity = 4x

Age of her husband = 4x+6

After 10 years,

Age of daughter = x+10

Age of Charity = 4x+10

Age of her husband = 4x+6+10=4x+16

As per given,

$x+10+4x+10+4x+16=117$

$9x+36=117\\\\ 9x=117-36\\\\ 9x=81\\\\ x=9$

Present age of Charity = 4(9)=36 years

Hence, Charity is 36 years old today.
