Answer:

The equation of the perpendicular line is;

y = -4x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we get the slope of the former line

we do this by comparing its equation with;

y = mx + b

This is the standard form with m representing the slope

Thus;

for y = x/4 -2

y = x(1/4) -2

slope = 1/4

Since the other equation is perpendicular to this line, the product of theirs slopes will give -1

Mathematically;

m2 * 1/4 = -1

m2 = -4

So we want to write the equation of the line with slope -4 and passing the point (4,-1)

we have;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y + 1 = -4(x-4)

y = -4x + 16-1

y = -4x + 15

Answer:

360,360

Step-by-step explanation:

This is called a Permutation with repetition, we want to know in how many ways we can arrange a certain ammount of elements (normal permutation), BUT some of those elements are identical.

The formula we use in these cases is:

$\frac{n!}{n1!*n2!*...*ni!}$

where n is the total amount of elements, n1 is the amount of repeated elements of the type 1, n2 is the amount of repeated elements of the type 2, ni is the amount of repeated elements of the type i.

In this particular case we have:

$n=13$ (total amount of shirts)
