Answer:

y=-5x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

x-5y=9

x-9=5y

y=\frac{1}{5}x-\frac{9}{5}

The slope for this line is: 1/5

The product of the slopes of any two perpendicular lines equals -1.

So the slope for the perpendicular line will be -5.

The point-slope formula=

Given slope m and a point on the line: (X, Y), the equation of the line will be:

y-Y=m(x-X)

So the equation for the perpendicular should be:

y-4=(-5)(x-2)

Simplify:

y-4=-5x+10

y=-5x+14

Help please will give brainlist <br><br> Find x+y
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

62

Step-by-step explanation:

2y-5 and 95 are vertical angles so they are equal

2y - 5 = 95

2y = 100

y = 50

3x and 144 form a linear pair angle so

3x + 144 = 180

3x =  36

x = 12

x=12 and y=50 so

12 + 50 = 62
