Question 21 Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,5) and is PERPENDICULAR to the line
y=1/2x+5.
Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form. Use the "/" as a fraction bar.

y=-2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.  slope 1/2 perpendicular will be -2/1=-2

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

y-5=-2(x+2)

y-5=-2x-4

y=-2x-4+5

y=-2x+1

c. prove the lengths are the same.

step-by-step explanation:

you need to prove the segments are congruent. congruent segments have the same length. find the lengths of the segments using the distance formula, and compare them.

answer: c. prove the lengths are the same.

the highest percentage for deaths in construction from highest to lowest is as follows: falls, struck by objects, electrocution, and caught-in/between. these four are collectively known as fatal four.

in the case of falls, the type that is responsible for the overall highest death in the category is falls from roofs.
