The answer is 4/8 because half of 16 is 8 and half of 8 is 4, therefore they are equivalent
The given equation is:
y = -10x + 1
Slope of this equation = -10
New line will be perpendicular to this line, so slope of new line = 1/10
So, we are to find the equation of a line with slope 1/10 and passing through (5,7). Using the point slope form we can write
y - 7 = 1/10 ( x - 5)
y = x/10 -1/2 + 7
y = x/10 + 13/2
⇒
x/10 - y = -13/2
So option C gives the correct equation of the new line
First do 8 divided by 9 = 0.88 x 6 x 19 start from the left and work to the right 0.88 x 6 = 5.33 x 19 = 101.3
