Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line is y=2x+5

By comparing it with the y=mx+b

we say that the slope of the given line is m=2

The concept is that the slope of a perpendicular line is given by -1/m.

Hence the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is

$-\frac{1}{2}$

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option C</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

2√24 + 5√54

To combine the radicals first make sure the radicals have the same square root

That's

<h3> $2 \sqrt{24} = 2 \sqrt{4 \times 6} = 2 \times 2 \sqrt{6}$ </h3><h3> $= 4 \sqrt{6}$ </h3><h3 /><h3><u>For 9√54</u></h3>

<h3> $5 \sqrt{54} = 5 \sqrt{9 \times 6} = 5 \times \sqrt{9} \times \sqrt{6}$ </h3><h3> $= 5 \times 3 \times \sqrt{6}$ </h3><h3> $= 15 \sqrt{6}$ </h3><h3 />

Since they have the same square root we can combine them

That's

We have the final answer as
