HELP :O >>>>Write an equation of the line passing through the point (5, 2) that is perpendicular to the line −x+3y=12. The equation of the line is y= x+

y - 2 = -3(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the given −x+3y=12. for 3y yields 3y = x + 12, which becomes

        x + 12

y =

            3

and so we see that the slope of the given line is 1/3.  Thus the slope of any line which is perpendicular to this one is the negative reciprocal of 1/3, or -3.

Use the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line and the given point (5, 2) to find the desired equation:

y - k = m(x - h) becomes  y - 2 = -3(x - 5)

45

step-by-step explanation:

to find a percentage, add a decimal in front and multiply it by the other number.

.25 times 180= 45
