step 1
Find out the slope WX
W(2,-3) and X(-4,9)
m=(9+3)/(-4-2)
m=12/-6
m=-2
step 2
Find out the slope YZ
Y(5,y) and Z(-1,1)
m=(1-y)/(-1-5)
m=(1-y)/-6
m=(y-1)/6
step 3
Remember that
If two lines are perpendicular
then
their slopes are negative reciprocal
that means
(y-1)/6=1/2 -----> because the negative reciprocal of -2 is 1/2
solve for y
2y-2=6
2y=6+2
2y=8
<h2>y=4</h2>
Answer:10 is the area
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following equation:

If we multiply both sides of the equation by 3 we get:
---> Multiplication Property of Equality
Applying the distributive property we have:
---> Distributive Property
Adding 1 on both sides of equality we have:

---> Addition Property of Equality
Subtracting
on both sides we have:

---> Subtraction Property of Equality
Finally, dividing by -4 on both sides we have:

---> Division Property of Equality
Solve for p by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
p=6
