You count the boxes lol
|x| - 5 < -13
|x| < -13 + 5
|x| < -8
No solution.
Considering the slopes of the segments, the correct option is:
D. No, because the triangle ABC doesn't have a pair of perpendicular sides.
<h3>When are lines parallel, perpendicular or neither?</h3>
The slope, given by <u>change in y divided by change in x</u>, determines if the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, as follows:
- If they are equal, the lines are parallel.
- If their multiplication is of -1, they are perpendicular.
- Otherwise, they are neither.
Here, we have to find if there are perpendicular segments, that is, if two slopes multiplied have a value of -1, then:
- mAB = (-7 - 9)/(11 - 1) = -8/5.
- mAC = (3 - 9)/(-9 - 1) = 3/5.
- mBC = (3 - (-7))/(-9 - 11) = -1/2.
No sides are perpendicular, hence option D is correct.

<h3>
Answer: angle Q = 75 degrees</h3>
Explanation:
The order of ABC and RPQ is important so we can match up the angles like so
- angle A = angle R .... first letters
- angle B = angle P .... second letters
- angle C = angle Q ... third letters
Meaning that angle Q = 75 since angle C is this measure.
Answer:
y = -2x + 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the perpendicular line = -1 / slope of the given line
= -1 / 1/2 = -2.
Using the point slope form of the equation of a straight line:
y - y1 = m (x - x1)
y - 8 = -2(x - 4)
y - 8 = -2x + 8
y = -2x + 16 is the required equation.
