Y = mx + c, where m is your gradient and c is your y intercept.
If the line is perpendicular to the line y = 3x - 5, the line's gradient = -(1/3) as when it comes to perpendicular bisector, m1/m2 = -1
y = -(1/3)x + C
To find C sub in x=2 and y=2 as it goes through (2,2)
2 = -(1/3)2 + C
2 = -(2/3) + C
2 + 2/3 = C
C = 8/3
There your equation of a line is
y = -(1/3)x + 8/3
Split them into triangles and rectangles.
15 x 9 = 135
(6 x 3) / 2 = 9
135 - 9 = 126
This gives you the area of the rectangle with the triangle taken out of it.
15 - 6 = 9
(9 x 6) / 2 = 27
This gives you the area of the triangle at the top.
Add these together: 27 + 126 = 153, and that's your answer!

Answer:
5/10
Step-by-step explanation:
5/10 as a decimal is 0.5, and 40/100 as a decimal is 0.4 (or 0.50 and 0.40, it doesnt make a difference) which means 5/10 is bigger
