Passing through (-2, 8) and PERPENDICULAR to y = 2x + 5 Write a linear equation with the given information. Please hurry! It’s due in 10 minutes!

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a perpendicular line will always be the NEGATIVE RECIPROCAL of the slope of the original line.

y=2x+5

Because this equation is organized in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, we can identify the slope of the original line is 2. The negative reciprocal of 2 is . Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line is . So far, our equation looks like this:

Now, we must solve for b, the y-intercept of this line. To do that, we can plug in the given point (-2,8) and solve for b:

Subtract both sides by 1 to isolate b

Therefore, the y-intercept of this line is 7.

After plugging both the slope and the y-intercept into y=mx+b, we get:

I hope this helps!

percentage - 25%

probability - 0.25

we know,

total amount of students in class = 20

total boys = 10

total girls = 10

no of girls who wear glasses = 10/2 = 5

probability of choosing a girl with glasses is =

number of girls wearing glasses/total number of students in the class = 5/20

thus, percentage of selecting a girl wearing glasses will be

= 5/20 × 100

= 5 × 5

25%

therefore,

probability will be 0.25
