The slope of a line perpendicular to the

graph of the equation 5x - 3y = 2 is -3/5.

<h3>How to find the slope of a line?</h3>

given that the equation is 5x - 3y = 2.

now write the equation in standard form y = mx + b

then -3y = 2 - 5x

y = -2/3 + 5x/3

y = 5/3x - 2/3

m 1*m 2 = - 1 is the formula for the slopes from a pair of perpendicular lines. where the slopes of the lines are m 1 and m 2.

Here m1 = 5/3 and m2 = -3/5.

Hence,the slope of a line perpendicular to the

graph of the equation 5x - 3y = 2 is -3/5.

How do you get the answer for 10 millimeters increased by 30%

tiny-mole [99]

First you have to find what 30% of ten is, and then add it to the 10. So how do you find 30 % of 10? In math...

"of" means ×
"is" means =

30% of 10 is
30 % × 10 =

change 30% to a decimal by dividing by 100 ( move the decimal to the left 2 places)

.30 × 10 = 3

So 30% of ten is 3. Now since we are increasing by 30%, we have to add it to the original value, 10.

3 + 10 = 13

So 10 millimeters increased by 30% is

13 millimeters

Answer:

AE = 120.83 m DE= 148.66 m

The perimeter of the pentagon is 699.49 meters

Sketch attached.

Step-by-step explanation: First we have to imagine the shape of the pentagon. In order to satisfy the requirement "that E is 50 m from the side AB and 30 m from the side BC," <u><em>this must be a concave pentagon.</em></u>

To determine the lengths of sides AE and DE, subtract the given distances of E from the lines, and use those values in the Pythagorean Theorem.

AE: c² = 110² + 50² c=√14600 AE = 120.830 m

DE: c² = 100² + 110² c = √22100 DE = 148.661 m

Add those lengths and the remaining sides of the 140m × 150m rectangle to calculate the perimeter.

280+150+120.83+148.66= 699.49
