Answer:

y=1/2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

a perpandicular line can be made by just making the x negative, or , since it's already negtive, positive.

so i'll start with

y=1/2x+k (just basic equation w no values)

6=2+k (adding values of the coordinate)

4=k (simplifying)

y=1/2x+4 (plugging k back in to the equation)

Answer:

y = 2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A line perpendicular to y= -1/2x +3 has slope 2, which is the "negative reciprocal" of the given slope -1/2.

Start with y = mx + b.  This new line passes thru (4, 6) and has slope 2.

Then:        6 = 2(4) + b, or b = -2.

The desired equation is y = 2x - 2.

Hi can you please help me ​
Licemer1 [7]
For this you need to know your angles in parallel lines.
3y will equal 87 as they are opposite angles and opposite angles are equal.
So y = 87/3
We can use the knowledge that angles in a straight line (in parallel line diagrams) will add up to 180. Therefore we do 180-87= 93. Now we know 3x=93 because just like the first example they are opposite angles. Now we know x=93/3.
(I didn’t have a calculator on me so you’ll have to work out the final result. Also I recommend looking into angles in parallel lines. I tried my best to explain so I hope you understand the jist of what I was trying to say.)

There are 24 boys and 16 girls in a hall, each holding coins in their hand.The mean number of coins for the children is 11, The
Karolina [17]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the mean number of coins for the girls is shown below:

Since there are 24 boys and 16 girls so the total children is 40

So the number of coins for all children is

= 40 × 11

= 440

And, the number of coins for all boys is

= 9 × 24

= 216

Now the mean is

= (440 - 216) ÷ 16 girls

= 14
