Perpendicular has slope that multiplies to -1

the slope for ax+by=c is -a/b
-1x+2y=4
slope=-(-1)/2=1/2
1/2 times what=-1?
-2

y=mx+b
m=slope
we need slope is -2
y=-2x+b
find b
given
(-2,1)
(x,y)
x=-2 and y=1 is a solution

1=-2(-2)+b
1=4+b
mius 4 both sides
-3=b


y=-2x-3 is equation

first one

While on a walk in the country, you pass a field full of horses and chickens. After a quick count, you determine there are 43 he
Irina-Kira [14]

Horse = x = 1 head and 4 feet

Chicken =y = 1 head and 2 feet

Horse + chicken = x + y = 43 ( total heads)

Horse = 43 - y

4x + 2y = 122

4(43-y) + 2y = 122

Simplify:

172-4y + 2y = 122

Combine like terms

172-2y = 122

Subtract 172 from both sides

-2y = -50

Divide both sides by-2

Y = 25

X + y = 43

X + 25 = 43

X = 18

There are 18 horses and 25 chickens.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first multiply 1 with 2+5i then multiply 2i with 2+5i and you will get

2+5i+4i+10i^2

then in the next step add 4i and 5i you will get 9i

in the next step put i^2=-1 and you will get -10

in the last step just substract 2-10 you will get -8 and 9i

and your answer will be -8+9i
