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

How do you solve y=1/2x-4
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: x = 2y + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y=1/2x-4

multiply both sides by 2

2y=x-4

substract from both sides 2y

0=x+–2y-4

substract from both sides x

-x=-2y-4

multiply both sides by -1 to get positive x

x=2y+4

A student has a 90, 84, and an 86 on their first 3 tests. What possible scores would the student need
Ugo [173]
The student would have to score 100% on their next test to brung their average up to 90. Here is why;
90+84+86=260
(260+?)/4=90
(260+100)/4=90
360/4=90
This is done to get the mean (or average) of a group of numbers by adding all the numbers and dividing by the amount of numbers you added together. Here it is divided by 4 because of the three tests he has taken and the test he will take.

Equations for m equals three times n devided by the difference of 4p and 5 n
MrRa [10]
Numerator of the equation is 3*nDenominator is 4*p - 5*n The equation is m = 3n/(4p-5n) 

Numerator = 3*n
Denominator = 4*p - 5*n
Equation = [m = 3n/(4p-5n)]

The distance around a circular park is 88 yards. What is the area of the park?
Eddi Din [679]

C = 3.14 x 2r

88 = 3.14 x 2r

28 = 2r

14 = r

A = 3.14 x r^2

A = 3.14 x 14^2

A = 615
