Answer:

y = 1/2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is perpendicular to y = -2x + 5 then the new line has a slope of 1/2.

So solve for b: using y = mx + b

2 = 1/2(-4) + b

2 = -2 + b

4 = b

Put it all together

y = 1/2x + 4

Simplify √49 + [√81 - x(9x = 14)]

eimsori [14]

$\longrightarrow{\green{- 9 {x}^{2} + 14x + 16}}$

$\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\red{Step-by-step\:explanation}}{\orange{:}}}}}$

$\sqrt{49} + [ \sqrt{81} - x \: (9x - 14) ] \\ \\ = \sqrt{7 \times 7} + [ \sqrt{9 \times 9} - 9 {x}^{2} + 14x] \\ \\ = \sqrt{( {7})^{2} } + [ \sqrt{ ({9})^{2} } - 9 {x}^{2} + 14x ] \\ \\ (∵ \sqrt{ ({x})^{2} } = x ) \\ \\ = 7 + (9 - 9 {x}^{2} + 14x) \\ \\ = 7 + 9 - 9 {x}^{2} + 14x \\ \\ = - 9 {x}^{2} + 14x + 16$
