Answer:

y =  -\frac{1}{2}x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of a line that passes through the point (8,6) and perpendicular to the equation 2x - y = 4, we will follow the steps below:

first write the equation 2x - y = 4 in a standard form

we will find the slope of our equation using this equation

2x - y = 4

y = 2x -4

comparing the above with

y = mx  + c

m = 2

m_{1}m_{2} = -1  ( slope of perpendicular equations)

2m_{2} = -1

m_{2}  = -1/2

our slope m = -1/2

We can now go ahead and form our equation

x_{1} =8   y_{1} =6

y-y_{1} = m (x-x_{1})

y-6 = -\frac{1}{2}(x-8)

y-6 =  -\frac{1}{2}x + 4

y=  -\frac{1}{2}x+4+6

y =  -\frac{1}{2}x + 10

Find the area and perimeter
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Area=2232 square ft

Perimeter=206 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

given

the diagram is a rectangle

length=72 ft

width=31 ft

we know that

formula of the area of rectangle= length × width

Area=72×31 square ft

Area=2232 square ft

Now calculate the perimeter

perimeter of rectangle=2(length+width)

perimeter=2(72+31)

perimeter=2(103)

perimeter=206 ft
