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

What is the volume of the metal in this heavy-duty pipe? (It is not drawn to scale and the inside of the pipe is empty space.) S

Jlenok [28]

The volume of the pipe is about 282.6 cubic feet.

First, we need to find the area of each circular cross section and subtract them to find the width of the pipe. The area of a circle is pi(r^2).

pi(3^2) - pi(2^2)
28.26 - 12.56 = 15.7

The width of the pipe is 15.7. Now, multiply that by 18 to find the volume.
15.7 x 18 = 282.6

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer :

H0 : u = 21.62 ( Null hypothesis )

H1 : u = 21.62 ( alternative hypothesis )

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulating hypothesis that can be used to determine whether the population mean rate at 5 CCF of residential water discharged by U.S public utilities differs from $21.62

H0 : u = 21.62 ( Null hypothesis )

H1 : u = 21.62 ( alternative hypothesis )

Which of the following statements is true?

madreJ [45]

Answer: choice 2) SAS

AB = DE is one pair of congruent sides that forms the first S in SAS. The other S in SAS refers to the pair of congruent sides BC = EF. The A in SAS is the angle pair angle B = angle E. Note how angle B and angle E are between the two pairs of congruent sides. The order of the letters matters because SAS is different from SSA, which is not a valid congruence argument.
