put the equation 2x - y = 16 in the form of y = mx + c
2x - y = 16
2x = 16 + y
y = 2x - 16
the slope of this line is 2. the slope of a line perpendicular to it would be the negative reciprocal of 2. in other words, it would multiply with 2 to give -1.
you can form this equation with that info
2x = -1
x = -1/2
OR
you can flip and change the sign (numerator) of 2/1
2/1
= -1/2
Answer:
$500
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the original price of the camera through a proportion. A proportion is an equation where two ratios or fractions are equal. The ratios or fractions compare like quantities.
<u>Second Discount</u>
20% off means we paid 80%. We know we paid $328 of some price.
I can now cross-multiply by multiplying numerator and denominator from each ratio.
I now solve for y by dividing by 80.
The price after the first discount was $410.
<u>First Discount</u>
We will repeat the steps above with $410. 18% off means we paid 82%.
I can now cross-multiply by multiplying numerator and denominator from each ratio.
I now solve for y by dividing by 82.
The original price was $500.
