Answer:
y=2 is a line parallel to the x axis that passes through the point (0,2)
A line perpendicular to it would any line that is parallel to the y axis, which crosses the x axis at any point.
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines are always found by reciprocating the negative value of the slope in question.
The slope in this case, in y = 2, is zero. You have a horizontal line hovering at the value “2” in the y-dimension, parallel to the x dimension. You can tell the slope is zero since there is no coefficient value paired with “x” so you can assume that since value multiplied by 0 is zero, the same instance has been performed in favor of a dearth of “x.”
Alright. So slope zero. The negative of zero is zero, since zero is neutral. It is neither positive nor negative (though some people tend to see it as positive for reasons irrelevant to your question. Will be answered at your request).
If you take the reciprocal of zero, it becomes undefined because what was once a numerator (0 divided by any number except 0, because then it would already be undefined) becomes a denominator (any numerator divided by 0 becomes undefined by default, as explained already). So now you can assume that the new line is undefined. This means that it is vertical! The only line that does not pass as a function. And it makes sense. A slope of 0 is 90° from a slope of no defined value, which will take on an unknown x-value since its location is not specified.
Answer:
Smaller number: 12
Larger number: 34
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the smaller number.
Let 3x - 2 represent the larger number (The larger number is two less than three times the smaller number, or x)
x + 3x -2 = 46
Add 3x + x:
4x - 2 = 46
Add 2 to both sides:
4x = 46 + 2
Add 46 + 2:
4x = 48
Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 48/4
x = 12 is the smaller number
Since 12 is the smaller number, and the sum of the two numbers is 46, than the larger number must be 34.

The first one and the last one
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5/2.5 = X/2
To solve a proportion, use the following equation:
(numerator * opposite denominator) = (numerator * opposite denominator)
Substitute in given numbers
(5 * 2) = (X * 2.5)
Multiply to simplify
10 = 2.5X
Divide both sides of this equation by 2.5
Hope this helps :)
