Answer:

y = -1/5x + 2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the equation into slope intercept form:

5x - y = 12

-y = -5x + 12

y = 5x - 12

The slope of a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal.

So, the slope of the new line will be -1/5

Then, plug this slope and the given point into the equation y = mx + b to find b

y = mx + b

3 = -1/5(-2) + b

3 = 0.4 + b

2.6 = b

So, the equation will be y = -1/5x + 2.6

Answer:

  x + 5y = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

When the equation of the line is given in the form ...

  ax -by = c

The perpendicular line can be written in the form ...

  bx +ay = constant

where "constant" is found by using the given point values for x and y.

Here, your equation will be ...

  x +5y = (-2) +5(3) = 13 . . . . for point (-2, 3)

The perpendicular line through (-2, 3) is x +5y = 13.

The height of a stack of 12 pennies is 18.24 millimeters. What is the thickness of each penny.
Helga [31]
I’m not great at math so I could easily be wrong, but

I divided the 18.24 millimeters by 12 pennies and got 1.52

So if the pennies are all the same size, each penny should 1.52 millimeters.

To show work:

18.24/12=1.52

A shipment of 105 Otter box covers for I-phones has arrived. The total invoice (excluding tax, shipping, etc.) is $3,849.75.
bezimeni [28]
<span>3,849.75 </span>÷ 49.95 = 77 (Calculator)

Sense you would like it explained than the question is asking how many otter box Defender Covers where shipped in that price. So when you have that they want the amount of Otter Box Defenders than you divide the amount paid for the shipment with the amount of the otter box defender price.

I hope this is helpful.

A certain bleach is 5% active ingredients. In 10 gallons of this bleach, how much is active ingredients
aalyn [17]
You didn't include how many gallons each container of bleach has, so I'm just going assume one container has a gallon inside. if 5% of one gallon is active Ingredients, and there are 10 gallons, then that's 1,000%. (one gal = 100%. 100x10= 1,000) 5 x 10= 50, so 50% of 1,000% is active ingredients, which can be simplified to 5% anyway, so 5%
