You have a line:
y=mx+b  (slope-intercepted form)
m=slope of this line.

The slope of a line perpendicular to that given line will be: ´"m´"
m´=-1/m.

For example:
y=8x+3
m=8

The solpe fo a line perpendicular to "y=8x+3" is:
m`=-1/8

Lady_Fox [76]
Translate
'what' means unknown or find this or ?
'is' means = or equals
22%
'of' means multiply
50

percent means parts out of 100
x%=x/100 so 22%=22/100

so

what is 22% of 50 means
?=22/100 times 50
?=1100/100
?=11
answer is 11

the hack, is to recognize that 50 is 1/2 of 100, so 22% of 1/2 of 100 is 22/2=11


answe ris 11
