Answer:

$m_{perpendicular}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

given

y + 2x = 2 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

y = - 2x + 2 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 2

given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

$m_{perpendicular}$ = - $\frac{1}{m}$ = - $\frac{1}{-2}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$

1. Since it's m - 7 you would have 7 to both sides so you would in fact have m < 13. If you double check your answer, you see that if m is say 12 (because 12 is obviously less than 13), 12 - 7 < 6

2. Again, use the same process on this problem as the first one. Add 8 to each sides because it's you're subtracting 8 from n. So you end up with n > 13. Check your answer. Say n is 14. 14 - 8 > 5

3. This one is different because you are adding 5 to p. So in order to get p by itself, you need to subtract 5 from both sides. p < 5. Say p is 4, 4 + 5 < 10.

When working with problems like these, you need to isolate the variable on one side and get it by itself.
