The most precise and correct statement about perpendicular lines from among those that are given is; A: AB is perpendicular to CD if the two line intersect such that ∠AOD is a right angle triangle.

<h3>How to Interpret Perpendicular Lines?</h3>

In geometry, perpendicular lines are defined as two lines that meet or intersect each other at right angles (90°).

Now, from the given image, we are told that lines AB and CD Intersect at point O. Looking at the options;

A) This option is true because if the intersect at right angles, then according to the definition above, they are perpendicular.

B) This option is incorrect because if they never meet, then they can never intersect.

C) This option is incorrect because the equality has to be at 90 degrees.

Answer: second option

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse function of the given function f(x):

$f(x)=2x$

You need to:

Substitute $f(x)=y$ into the function:

$y=2x$

Now, you need to solve for "x", to do this, you must divide both sides of the function by 2:

$\frac{y}{2}=\frac{2x}{2}\\\\\frac{y}{2}=x$

Now, replace "x" with "y" and replace "y" with "x":

$\frac{x}{2}=y$

Therefore, substituting $y=f^{-1}(x)$ you get:

$f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x}{2}$ or $f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{2}x$

During a Middle School basketball season, Antonio made 17 of his free throws out of 20. What percent of his free throws did he m

hram777 [196]

I see a fraction. Don't you. Here it is 17/20. Now, let's divide 17 by 20 to get a decimal number, which is 0.85. Next, we multiply 0.85 by 100 to get the percent because that is what the question desires for us to express our answer. As a result, we get 85%, and Antonio made 85% of his free throws. By the way, I hope my response helps you.

Write the quadratic equation whose roots are 5 and 1, and whose leading coefficient is 5

zepelin [54]

Answer: the equation is

5x^2 -30x - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation is one in which the highest power of the unknown is 2.

The general form of a quadratic equation is expressed as

ax^2 + bx + c

Where c is a constant and a is the leading coefficient

Assuming we want to write the quadratic equation in x, from the information given, the given roots are 5 and 1 and the leading coefficient is 5. We will just multiply the expression by the leading coefficient.

Therefore, the linear factors of the quadratic will be (x-5) and (x-1)

With the leading coefficient as 5, the equation becomes

5(x-5)(x-1)

= 5(x^2 - x - 5x + 5)

= 5(x^2 - 6x + 5)

= 5x^2 -30x - 25
