Since the product of AB and BC is -1, hence the ABC is a right triangle and the length AC is the hypotenuse

<h3>Right angled triangle</h3>

A right angles triangle is a triangle that has 3 sides and angles with one of its angles to be 90 degrees.

For the given coordinates to be a right angled triangle, one of the line must be perpendicular to the other and for two lines to be perpendicular, the product of its slope must be -1.

Find the slopes of AB, BC and AC

Slope of AB = 5-11/1-6
Slope of AB = -6/-5 = 6/5

Slope of BC = 0-5/7-1
Slope of BC = -5/6

Slope of AC = 0-11/7-6
Slope of AC = -11/1. = -11

Take the product of AB and BC
AB * BC = 6/5 * -5/6
AB * BC = -1

Since the product of AB and BC is -1, hence the ABC is a right triangle and the length AC is the hypotenuse

Mike is pouring a two foot cement sidewalk around the perimeter of his swimming pool. His swimming pool measures 6 feet by 14 fe
frosja888 [35]
9 inches * 1 foot / 12 inches
= 3/4 feet deep

Area of the sidewalk: 
= the sides of the pool * the width of the sidewalk + the corners of the sidewalk (width * width)
= 2 sides * 6 (feet / side) * 2 feet + 2 sides * 14 (feet / side) * 2 feet + 4 corners * (2 feet * 2 feet / corner)
= 12 feet * 2 feet + 28 feet * 2 feet + 4 * 2 feet * 2 feet
= 24 feet^2 + 56 feet^2 + 16 feet^2
= 96 feet^2

Volume:
= 96 feet^2 * 3/4 feet
= (96 * 3 / 4) feet^3
= (19 * 3) feet^3
= 57 feet^3

What is the solution for X in the equation 4x - 3 + 5 = 2x + 7 - 8x
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

C. X = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 3 + 5 = 2x + 7 - 8x

      4x +2 = - 6x + 7

    4x + 6x = 7 - 2

           10x = 5

               x = 1/2
