Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is parallel to X-axis, so its equation is y = b (b is its intersect of Y-axis)

Therefore the perpendicular line has to be parallel to Y-axis, so its equation will be x = x₀, where x₀ is its intersect of X-axis and x-coordinate of any point it passes through.

(2, 6) ⇒ x₀ = 2

so the equation is

x = 2

54 divided by _____ = -27

Nikitich [7]

54/-2 = -27

First, let's rewrite:

Let x represent the unknown number:

$\frac{54}{x}=\text{ -27}$

$\begin{gathered} \frac{54}{x}\text{ = -27} \\ 54\text{ = -27x} \\ \text{Divide both sides by -27} \\ \frac{54}{-27}=\text{ }\frac{-27x}{-27} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} 27\times2\text{ = 54} \\ x\text{ = -2 (because we are dividing positive number by a negative number)} \\ So\text{ our answer will be negative} \end{gathered}$

Hence, 54/-2 = -27
