Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite reciprocals. if u don't know what opposite reciprocals are, according to study.com they are, "The term opposite reciprocals refers to two numbers that have opposite signs and are flipped fractions of each other." for example, 1/2 and -2 are opposite reciprocals.

also recall that the formula to find the slope of a line is m=y2-y1/x2-x1

to solve this problem, we need to go through all of the options and find the slope of that line using the given point and point (0,4). After that, we need to check if that slope is equal to 1. One is the opposite reciprocal of -1, and -1 is the slope of the equation y= -x+4. if the slope is equal to 1, the line will be perpendicular to the line y= -x+4.

lets do the math now:

option a)

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=12-4/6-0

m=8/6

m=4/3

this line isnt perpendicular to y= -x +4 cuz the slope is 4/3, which isnt equal to 1

option b)

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=0-4/6-0

m=-4/6

m= -2/3

this line isnt perpendicular to y= -x +4 cuz the slope is -2/3, which isnt equal to 1

--------------

ok girl i dont wanna do all the rest of the calculations. just keep doing the same thing with all the other options until you find something that has a slope of 1.

toodles! :)

Please I really need help with this
romanna [79]

Answer:

A, 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that she has a total of d dollars, and spends half of it, then we have 1/2d. She then spends <em>another</em> 6 dollars, and therefore we would subtract. She is left with one dollar.

1/2d-6=1

Working backwards, we can solve for d, her total amount of money:

1/2d=7

d=14

<em>I hope this helps! :)</em>

Can someone help me with this math problem
Elis [28]

Answer:

C. Divide both sides of the equation by -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal of the equation is to isolate x. In order to do that we have to remove the '-2' by doing the inverse operation. That is the opposite operation, for example addition and subtraction, multiplication and division.

Since x is being multiplied by -2, we do the inverse which is division.

Which of the following lists is in the correct order from smallest to largest? -13, -19, -21, -24 11, -12, 15, -19 -7, -3, 6, 2
seraphim [82]

Answer:

-24, -21, -19, -19, -19, -14, -13, -12, -7, -3, 2, 5, 6, 11, 11, 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

To put the numbers in least to greatest form, you need to put the biggest numbers with a - sign in front of it

This means negative

Negative means below zero

Then after putting the big negative numbers, you put positive numbers going from smallest to largest

So the numbers in least to greatest is -24, -21, -19, -19, -19, -14, -13, -12, -7, -3, 2, 5, 6, 11, 11, 15
