Hi there!
To find the perpendicular slope you need to flip the fraction and change the sign. So 1/2=2/1 and tge original slope was positive, so the slope is -2. Now you sub in the point (-7,-4) in for x and y in the formula y=mx+b and solve for b (sub in 2 for m as well)
Y=mx+b
-4=-2*-7+b
-4=14+b
-4-14=b
B=-18
The equation is y=-2x-18
Hope this helps!
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the mystery number x.

Hope this helps!
Answer: y = -5
Substitute in 3 for x.
x - y = 8 Substitution
3 - y = 8 Subtract 3 from both sides
-y = 5 Divide by -1 to both sides
y = -5 Answer!
You can also check your work.
x - y = 8
3 - (-5) = 8
3 + 5 = 8
8 = 8
I'm not sure exactly what you're asking but 1×10^-5 is .00001. I could be interpreting your question wrong in which case I'm sorry.
