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

Answer:

answer and explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

2.m<x=75(angle on the same line so 180-105)

  m<y=105 (vertical angles of the parallelogram are equal)

 m<z=75 ( vertical angle of m<x)

3.M<y = 25 ( vertical angle property)

m<z=155( on the same line)

m<z and M,x =155( vertical angles )
