The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the normal slope.  For example, 3/7 would become -7/3.  

Because the slope of this line is 1/5, the slope of a line that is perpendicular to it is -5.

Now, to find the equation of the line, we need to find the y intercept.  Since the line passes through (0,0), that is the y intercept.  Now, we can make the equation of the line.

y = -5x

(10+2x)(8+2x) = 120
4x^2 + 36x + 80 = 120
x^2 + 9x + 20 = 30

x^2 + 9x - 10 = 0

Y=2x+5 and y=3x+11 solve by substitution.
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Answer: x= -6 and y= -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute 2x+5 for y in y=3x+11:

y=3x+11

2x+5=3x+11

2x+5+−3x=3x+11+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)

−x+5=11

−x+5+−5=11+−5(Add -5 to both sides)

−x=6

−x−1=6−1(Divide both sides by -1)

x=−6

Step: Substitute −6 for x in y=2x+5:

y=2x+5

y=(2)(−6)+5

y=−7(Simplify both sides of the equation)
