Slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals of each other. The slope of the given equation (which is in slope-intercept form) is 1, the invisible coefficient of x. The opposite reciprocal of 1 is -1, thus the slope of a line perpendicular to the line y = x + 4 is -1.

Hope this helps.

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

We took $ 24 to the movies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total money be

On movies = Half of the money =\frac{x}{2}

On popcorn =  \frac{x}{4}

on candy = $2

On soda = $3

total money spent =  \frac{x}{2} +\frac{x}{4}+ 2+3+1

         x   =  \frac{x}{2} +\frac{x}{4}+ 2+3+1

x- \frac{x}{2} -\frac{x}{4} = 6

\frac{x}{1} -\frac{x}{2} - \frac{x}{4}  =6

    \frac{4x-2x-x}{4}  = 6\\          \frac{x}{4} =6\\x =24
