The perpendicular equation would include a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the original slope.
Steps:
1. Get x to the other side in the original equation. This making the slope -4 or -4/1.
2. Turn the slope into it’s opposite reciprocal m = 1/4.
3. If you use point-slope form, y - y1 = m( x - x1 ), you can substitute y1 and x1 with the numbers in the point given. But since we previously found the opposite reciprocal, we will replace “m” as well. *By the way, the subtraction of a negative makes a positive. [y + 3 = 1/4( x + 4 )]
4. Solve:
A: Distribute (y + 3 = 1/4x + 1)
B: Subtract 3 from both sides (y = 1/4x -2)
Perpendicular Equation: y = 1/4x - 2
Answer:
136 mm²
Step-by-step explanation:






A = 136
Here, we just use the following x values and put them into the equation.
y = - 0.05x + 16
y = -0.5(0) + 16
y = 16
y = - 0.05x + 16
y = -0.5(160) + 16
y = -80 + 16
y = -64
y = - 0.05x + 16
y = -0.5(320) + 16
y = - 160 + 16
y = -144
Now, to set up the table, you could list the x values and the y values.
x values :- 0,160, 320
y values:- 16, -64, -144
