Walking path across the park is represented by the equation y=-2x-7.a new path will be built perpendicular to this path. the past will intersect at the point (-2,-3) identify the equation that represents the new path

here the equation of path is -2x-7=y

let us find slope of this line by using y=mx+b

so slope m=-2

now new path is perpendicular to this path.

product of slopes of perpendiculars is -1

so slope of new path is 1/2

now it passes through (-2,-3) with slope 1/2

using y=mx+b to get value of b

-3=1/2(-2) +b

b=-2

plugging m=-1/2 and b=-2 in y=mx + b to get the final equation as

y=(-1/2) x -2 is the equation of new path

n=9

step-by-step explanation:

7 times a number = 7n

decreased by 13 = 7n-13

same as is =

5 times the number = 5n

increased by 5 = 5n+5

7n-13 = 5n+5

2n=18

n=9

b. would be the answer : )

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: add -16x to both sides.

16x−4y+−16x=64+−16x  

−4y=−16x+64

step 2: divide both sides by -4.

−4y /-4 = -16x + 64/-4

answer:   y=4x−16

hope i'm right
