Answer: 2/3x
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to simplify your original line to point slope formula. Dividing the whole thing by 2 to get y by itself leaves you with
y = 3/2x - 1/2
Any perpendicular line has the opposite slope to the line it is perpendicular to, so you flip the slope to get 2/3x
The textbook is $150 originally, so to find the price of the textbook on sale, multiply the original price by 12% (0.12). Then subtract 12% of 150 from 150.
Subtract 18 from 150.
Multiply the price of the textbook on sale by the sales tax of 8.25% (0.0825). Then add the tax price onto the sale price of the textbook.
Add 10.89 to 132.
The final price of the textbook is $142.89.
