5 0

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage loss is calculated as

$\frac{loss}{original}$ × 100%

loss = 50000 - 35000 = 15000, thus

percent loss = $\frac{15000}{50000}$ × 100% = 30%

Write an equation of the line that passes through (2, -3) and is perpendicular to the line y=-2x-3

Natalija [7]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{2} (x-2)-3$ or $y=\frac{1}{2} x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular slope is the opposite-reciprocal of the original slope:

Perpendicular slope of -2 is $\frac{1}{2}$

Write the equation in point-slope form ( $y=a(x-h)+k$ ):

$y=\frac{1}{2} (x-2)-3$

Convert to slope-intercept form if needed:

$y=\frac{1}{2} x-1-3$

$y=\frac{1}{2} x-4$
