Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope m = (-8-2)/(1+1)=-10/2 = -5

Perpendicular slope-1/m = -1/-5 = 1/5

Equation of a line with perpendicular slope is

y-y1=(-1/m)(x-x1)

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

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

Answer:

I believe it's (4^2)*12

Step-by-step explanation:

Then we have to do 16*12 to get the total amount of panes since Panes Per Window multiplied by Number Of Windows equals Total Number Of Panes
