Yes, I think the answer is y = 7. The line x = 4 runs vertical (because all of the points in that line have an x-value of 4) so any line that is perpendicular to it has to be horizontal. Any line that is horizontal is in the form y = (some number). In order for the new line to run through the point (5,7) it would have to have the same y-value as that point, which is 7. So the new line is y = 7. Hope this helps :) (P.S. try graphing them both if you need a visual.)

Given the function g(x) = 8x − 2, compare and contrast g(−2) and g(4). Choose the statement that is true concerning these two va

Answer:

The value of g(−2) is smaller than the value of g(4).

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, simply plug in the values in the given equation g(x)=8x-2.

g(-2)=8(-2)-2 -----> -18

g(4)=8(4)-2 ------> 30

here it is obvious that -18 is smaller than 30, therefore the value of g(−2) is smaller than the value of g(4).
