Answer:

y=-1/2x+7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

two lines are perpendicular if the product of the slopes is equal to -1

the slope for y=2x+4 is 2

2*x=-1

x=-1/2

the formula for the slope is

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=m

we know y1 and x1

(y+5)/(x+3)=-1/2

y+5=x+3/2

2y+10=x+3

2y=x-7

y=-1/2x+7/2

The shirts in total cost $30 and with the additional $30 cost of the jeans the total price without a discount is $60. You then take the discount and turn it into a decimal (0.10) and multiply it by the $60 total. This gives you 6, which is the amount of money you take off, which means the total is $54

Answer: Y= - 1/2x - 8
If you move y to one side by itself that’s what you’ll get and you can check this answer by multiplying each side by 2 and moving the x ti the left side and you’ll get your beginning equation
