The slope of the red line that is perpendicular to the green line is: -5/2.

<h3>What are the Slope Values of Perpendicular Lines?</h3>

When one line lies perpendicular to another line, the slope of one must be the negative reciprocal of the other line.

<h3>What is the Negative Reciprocal of a Number?</h3>

If given a number, i.e. a/b, the negative reciprocal of a/b would the opposite value of the reciprocal of a/b.

Reciprocal of a/b is b/a. Negative reciprocal of a/b would therefore be: -b/a.

Given that the slope of the green line is: 2/5. And it is perpendicular to the red line. The slope of the red line would be the negative reciprocal of 2/5.

Negative reciprocal of 2/5 is -5/2.

Therefore, the slope of the red line is: -5/2.

A population of 5000 people doubles in size every 10 years. Determine the population
Marrrta [24]

Answer: A quantity grows exponentially when its increase is proportional to what is already there. A common example is compound interest, where $100 invested at 7% per year annual compound interest will double in 10 years. Similarly, if a population grows at 7% per year, it, too, will double in 10 years.

</span></span><span>|x| </span>≤ <span>−<span>2
</span></span>
Now solve the absolute value
(You can't because the absolute value would end up less than 0 and it's not possible for that to happen)

Type a digit that makes this statement true. HELPPPP MEEEEE PLZZZZZ!!!
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so basically you want a number that is evenly divisible by 4. Or in other words 4 x ? = 691,61#

The easiest thing to do is start with a zero there and divide it by 4 to see what you get.

691,610 / 4 = 172,902.5

Since this is not evenly divisible by 4 let's round it up to the next whole number and multiply by 4

4 x 172,903 = 691,612

So the digit you can put on the end of the number is 2
