Answer: y = -2x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of their slope = -1, that is , if m_{1} is the slope of the first line and m_{2} is the slope of the second line , if the two lines are perpendicular , then m_{1}m_{2} = -1

The equation of the line given :

y = 1/2x - 1

comparing with the equation of line in slope intercept form

y = mx + c , where m is the slope and c is the y - intercept , it implies that

m_{1} = 1/2

Therefore :

m_{2} = -2

To find the equation of the line with slope -2  and passes through the point ( 3 , 4 ) we will use the formula

y-y_{1} = m (x-x_{1} )

y - 4 = -2 ( x - 3 )

y - 4 = -2x + 6

y = -2x + 6 + 4

y = -2x + 10

Additive inverses add to zero. the additive inverse of any number is just that number multiplied by -1. the additive inverse -1.9 is+1.9 because when you add them the result is zero

Please Answer full question below thanks
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

45*

Step-by-step explanation:

180-115=65

65=angle 2

180-110=70

70=angle 1

70+65=135

180-135=45

45=angle 7

angle 7 and 6 are vertical angles so angle 6=45

angle 6 and angle 5 are an example of alternate interior angles soo

angle 5=45*

Hope I helped!
