<span>2x+12y=-1
</span>y = -1x/6 -1/12
Perpendicular lines<span> are </span>lines<span> that cross one another at a 90° angle. They have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of one another. Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line in this problem is the opposite reciprocal of -1/6 which is 6. The equation would be
</span><span>y=(6)x+9</span>
Area = (x+6)(x+2) = x^2 + 8x + 12
The correct answer is 9.76 :)
5x+25 final answer is x=5
