Answer:
The third choice is the one you want
Step-by-step explanation:
If we are to write the equation of a line perpendicular to WX, we first must determine what the slope of the WX is, because the line perpendicular to WX has a slope that is the flip of the slope of WX with the opposite sign. Solving for y takes care of finding the slope of WX:
2x + y = -5 so
y = -2x - 5
The slope is -2. That means that the reciprocal slope is 1/2. Using that slope along with the coordinates x = -1 and y = -2, we first write the line using point-slope form and then solve it for y. Start by filling in the m, the x value and the y value:

Getting rid of the double negatives gives us:

Distributing then gives us:

And finally solving for y (I am going to express the 2 on the left as 4/2 when I move it by subtraction in order to add those fractions):

And the final equation in slope-intercept form is:

.88622692545 so approximately.89
Given:
Lamont cotton is 4% commission on the first 10,000 of monthly sales and 10% on all sales over 10,000.
Consider his last month sales is 38,000.
To find:
The total commission.
Solution:
4% commission on the first 10,000 of monthly sales is

Sales over 10,000 is

10% commission on all sales over 10,000 is

Now, the total commission is

Therefore, the total commission is 3,200.
23 and 9 are the two numbers
Explanation:
x = one number
y = other number
x + y = 32 {sum of two numbers is 32
x - y = 14 {difference is 14}
-----------
2x = 46 {added the two equations together}
x = 23 {divided both sides by 2}
x + y = 32 {top equation}
23 + y = 32 {substituted 23, in for x, into top equation}
y = 9 {subtracted 23 from both sides}
23 and 9 are the two numbers
Answer:
you would need just 4 equation
