The slope of the given line is -2, and since perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, the slope of the line we want to find is 1/2.
Substituting into point-slope form,

We can solve this by substitution method.
Look at the second equation. If we rearrange to find 7x, we can substitute in the value into the first equation.



Therefore, 
Now replace the 7x in the first equation with 5y - 12:
(substitute in 7x = 5y - 12)




Now that we know y, we can find x by substituting in y = 1 into any equation we want. I will use the equation: 7x = 5y - 12
(substitute in y = 1)

Answer:
5x + 6y = 20_____(1)
8x - 6y = -46_____(2)
Solving simultaneously:
Eqn(1) + Eqn(2)
5x + 8x + 6y + (-6y) = 20 + (-46)
13x = -26
x = -2
substituting this into Eqn (1):
5(-2) + 6y = 20
-10 + 6y = 20
6y = 30
y = 5
hence:
x = -2,y = 5.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression is
. To find the value, substitute the values x = 3 and y =-2 then follow order of operations.
