What are we multiplying exactly?
X - y = -5
-y = -x - 5
y = x + 5...slope here is 1. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip ur slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -1.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1
(4,7)...x = 4 and y = 7
now we sub and find b, the y int
7 = -1(4) + b
7 = -4 + b
7 + 4 = b
11 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -x + 11 <==
Lol, bro, 15.68 is your solution
X. . X. X. X. X. X x x x x. X x x x. X x. X x x
Answer:
x =-1
Step-by-step explanation:

replace y by 2x +4 in the first equation
2(2x + 4) = 6x + 10
4x + 8 = 6x + 10
-2x +8 = 10
-2x = 2
x = -1
