Answer:

the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = 1/2x + 3 and passes through the point (10, -5)

= -5 = -2x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = 1/2x + 3 and passes through the point (10, -5).

Using the slope intercept equation,

y = mx +c

m = slope = 1/2

For two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1

Let the slope of the other line be m2

m1×m2 =-1

1/2×m2 = -1

m2 = -1/(1/2) = -2

Slope of line = -2

For points (10, -5), x = 10, y =-5

-5 = -2× 10 +c

-5 = -20+ c

c = -5+20= 15

the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = 1/2x + 3 and passes through the point (10, -5)

-5 = -2x + 15

bearing in mind that an absolute value expression is in effect a piece-wise expression, because it has a ± version.


\bf 3|x|+7=28\implies 3|x|=21\implies |x|=\cfrac{21}{3}\implies |x|=7\implies  \begin{cases} +(x)=7\\ -(x)=7 \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ +(x)=7\implies \boxed{x=7}~\hfill  -x=7\implies \boxed{x=-7}

Find the value of x that makes the two triangles equal
Leona [35]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

\triangle CDE \sim\triangle FGH...(given)

\therefore \frac{CD}{FG}=\frac{CE}{FH}...(csst)

\therefore \frac{4x}{28}=\frac{25}{35}

\therefore \frac{x}{7}=\frac{5}{7}

\therefore x=\frac{7\times 5}{7}

\therefore x=5
