x = 4

because it is perpendicular, the new equation has to be a vertical since the original was horizontal. We know that it passes through (4,-2) so it has to be x=4

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

the line

y=-2

is a horizontal line on the -2 of the y-axis (for any x value, the y value is always -2).

Thus since y=-2 is a horizontal line, a perpendicular line to a horizontal line has to be a vertical line.

Now, we want this vertical to pass through the point:

(4,-2).

This means that the only option we have is the line:

x=4

because this is the equation of a vertical line sitting on the x = 4.

This can be better visualized in the attached image. where the red line isy = -2 and the dotted blue line is x = 4

24+82 rounding or compatible numbers to estimate the sum
allsm [11]

Answer:

106

Step-by-step explanation:

you take 82 and 24 and add them together so it would be like this 2 + 4 = 6 and 8 + 2 = 10 so the 8 is in a tens place so the answer from adding 8 + 2 = 100 because you in the tens place so the final answer would be 106 after adding it all up.

-14n + q=rt-4n, for n
pentagon [3]
N = -1/10rt + 1/10q
= −14n+q+4n=rt−4n+4n
= −10n+q=rt
= −10n+q+−q=rt+−q
= −10n=rt−q
= -10n/-10 = rt-q/-10
So the answer is:
= n = -1/10rt + 1/10q
