Hi there! :)

\large\boxed{C.)\text{ } y = -1/2x + 4}

Given equation:

y = 2x + 3

A perpendicular line would have a slope of the negative reciprocal, therefore:

2x --> -1/2x

Use the equation y = mx + b to plug in the given point values along with the slope to solve for the final equation:

3 = -1/2(2) + b

3 = -1 + b

3 + 1 = b

b = 4

Therefore, the final equation is:

y = -1/2x + 4

The correct answer choice is C, y = -1/2x + 4.

Answer:

  1229 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing angle is ...

  180° -60° -75° = 45°

Knowing that, the Law of Sines can be used to find the side opposite the 75° angle.

  ?/sin(75°) = 900 km/sin(45°)

  ? = (900 km)sin(75°)/sin(45°) ≈ 1229.423 km

The UFO is about 1229 km from KA-12.
