Answer:

The equation of line C would be y = -1/2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation, we first need to find the slope. Since the original line has a slope of 2 and all perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes, we know the new line to have a slope of -1/2.

Now we use that along with the given point in point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -1/2(x - 4)

y - 2 = -1/2x + 2

y = -1/2x + 4

Solve for c.<br><br> 3 − 7c − 20c = 7(–7c − 19) + 14c<br><br> c =
OleMash [197]

Answer:

\boxed{c = -17}

Step-by-step explanation:

=  > 3 - 7c - 20c = 7( - 7c - 19) + 14c \\  \\  =  > 3 - 27c = ( - 7c \times 7) - (7 \times 19) + 14c \\  \\  =  > 3 - 27c =  - 49c - 133 + 14c \\  \\  =  > 3 - 27c =  - 35c - 133 \\  \\  =  > 3 - 27c + 35c =  - 133 \\  \\  =  > 3  + 8c =  - 133 \\  \\  =  > 8c =  - 133 - 3 \\  \\  =  > 8c =  - 136 \\  \\  =  > c =  -  \frac{136}{8}  \\  \\  =  > c =  - 17
