Write the equation of a line perpendicular to y=2x-5 that passes through the point (-2,5)
yawa3891 [41]

y = mx + b

The product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1.  The slope of the given line is 2, so the slope of the perpendicular line is -1/2.

y = (-1/2)x + b

Now use the given point to find b and finish from here.

-5 = (-1/2)(2) + b

b = ?

How can we use the graph of a logarithmic function to​ verify the domain of a function?PLEASE HELP
guajiro [1.7K]
The function y = log 2 x has the domain of set of positive real numbers and the range of set of real numbers. Remember that since the logarithmic function is the inverse of the exponential function, the domain of logarithmic function is the range of exponential function, and vice versa.
