A (0,0), B(8,10), C(5,-10)
First, find the slope of AB and AC, slope of AB is 5/4, slope of AC is -2
next, find the negative reciprocals of the slopes: -4/5 and 1/2 respectively
so the altitude of AB is a line with a slope of -4/5 passing through (5,-10)
the altitude of AC is a line with a slope of 1/2 passing through (8,10)
find these two lines:
Plug (5,-10) in y=(-4/5)x+b to find b, b=-6, so y=(-4/5)x -6
plug (8,10) in y=(1/2)x +b to find b, b=6, so y=(1/2) x +6

the point where these two lines meet is the orthocenter.
y=(-4/5)x -6
y=(1/2) x +6
(-4/5)x -6=(1/2) x +6
x=-120/13
y=(1/2)*(-120/13)+6=18/13
so the orthocenter is (-120/13, 18/13)
these numbers look odd, but I've run the vertex through an orthodox calculator, and got the same result.

You need to divide the miles by the hours to et the Average speed.
M divided by h = s
Because to get the mph (miles per hour) you multiply the average speed to the hours.
S•h=mph

Find the equation of a line that passes through (1,12) and is parallel to the graph of y=3x+3 Write the equation in​ slope-inter
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

The equation of the parallel line is

y = 3x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a straight line is given as;

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the intercept

If two lines are parallel, their slopes are equal

So the slope of the new line too is 3

Using the point-slope formula

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-12 = 3(x-1)

y-12 = 3x-3

y = 3x-3 + 12

y = 3x + 9
