Answer:

$\fbox {x = 3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Decimal form of the lower and higher limits</u> :

1/4 = 0.25
1/3 = 0.33...

Hence, the best one which lies in the middle of the limits would be <u>0.3</u>.

Now, equate the middle part :

x/10 = 0.3
x = 3

Question 1: Find the equation of the line through point (5,4) and perpendicular to y=−43x−2. Use a forward slash (i.e. "/") for

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Question 1: y = 3/4x + 1/4.

Question 2: y = 6/5x + 7/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1: A line perpendicular to another line would have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the other line. If the slope of the first line is -4/3, the slope of a line perpendicular to the first would have a slope of 3/4.

Since the line goes through (5, 4), we can just put the points into the equation, y = 3/4x + b.

4 = 3/4(5) + b

b + 15/4 = 4

b = 16/4 - 15/4

b = 1/4

So, the equation of the line is y = 3/4x + 1/4.

Question 2: 5x + 6y = -6

6y = -5x - 6

y = -5/6x - 1

As stated before, a line perpendicular to another will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the other. So, the slope of the other line is 6/5.

The line goes through (-2, -1), so we can put the points into the equation, y = 6/5x + b.

-1 = 6/5(-2) + b

b - 12/5 = -5/5

b = -5/5 + 12/5

b = 7/5

So, the equation of the line is y = 6/5x + 7/5.

Hope this helps!

Give a geometric description of the following system of equations.a. 2x−4y=12 −3x+6y=−15.b. 2x−4y=12 −5x+3y=10.a. 2x−4y=12 −3x+6

Reptile [31]

Answer:

a. No solution, parallel lines.

b. One solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations:

a. $2x-4y=12$

$-3x+6y=-15$

b. $2x-4y=12$

$-5x+3y=10$

To give a geometric description of the given system of equations.

The geometric description of a system of equations in 2 variables mean the system of equations will represent the number of lines equal to the number of equations in the system given.

i.e.

Number of planes = Number of variables

Number of lines = Number of equations in the system.

Here, we are given 2 variables and 2 equation in each system.

So, they can be represented in the xy-coordinates plane.

And the number of solutions to the system depends on the following condition.

Let the system of equations be:

$A_1x+B_1y+C_1=0\\A_2x+B_2y+C_2=0$

1. One solution:

There will be one solution to the system of equations, If we have:

$\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}\neq\dfrac{B_1}{B_2}$

2. Infinitely Many Solutions: (Identical lines in the system)

$\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{B_1}{B_2}= \dfrac{C_1}{C_2}$

3. No Solution:(Parallel lines)

$\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{B_1}{B_2}\neq\dfrac{C_1}{C_2}$

Now, let us discuss the system of equations one by one:

a. $2x-4y=12$ OR $2x-4y-12=0$

$-3x+6y=-15$ OR $-3x+6y+15=0$

$A_1 = 2, B_1 = -4, C_1 = -12\\A_2 = -3, B_2 = 6, C_2= 15$

Here, the ratio:

$\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{B_1}{B_2} = -\dfrac{2}{3}\\\dfrac{C_1}{C_2} = -\dfrac{4}{5}$

$\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{B_1}{B_2}\neq\dfrac{C_1}{C_2}$

Therefore, no solution i.e. parallel lines.

b. $2x-4y=12$ OR $2x-4y-12=0$

$-5x+3y=10$ OR $-5x+3y-10=0$

$A_1 = 2, B_1 = -4, C_1 = -12\\A_2 = -5, B_2 = 3, C_2 = -10$

$\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}= -\dfrac{2}{5}\\\dfrac{B_1}{B_2} = -\dfrac{4}{3}\\\dfrac{C_1}{C_2} = -\dfrac{6}{5}$

$\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}\neq\dfrac{B_1}{B_2}$

So, one solution.

Find the measure of the indicated angles below.Drag the points to show the measure of the four angles

horrorfan [7]

<h2>Answer</h2>

A. Angle E = 113°

B. x = 16°

<h2>Explain</h2>

<u>Number A</u>

92 + 70 + 85 + ? = 360

162 + 85 + ? = 360

247 + ? = 360

? = 360 - 247

? = 113°

<u>Number B</u>

108 + 84 + ( x + 30 ) + ( 2x + 18 ) = 360

(180 + 84 + 30 + 18) + (x + 2x) = 360

312 + 3x = 360

3x = 360 - 312

3x = 48

x = 48/3

x = 16°

Which of the binomials below is a factor of this trinomial?

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

C. x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to do this is to first take out GCF

6(x² - x - 12)

Then we factor

6(x - 4)(x + 3)

We can now see our answer.
