The coordinates of triangle FGH are F(2, 4), G(5, −9) and H(−3, −4). Which statement proves that triangle FGH is a right triangl

e? (m = y2 - y1 x2 - x1 ) A) The slope of GH = 5 8 , and the slope of FH = 8 5 ; therefore, GH ⊥ FH. B) The slope of FG = − 5 8 , and the slope of GH = 5 8 ; therefore, FG ⊥ GH. C) The slope of GH = − 5 8 , and the slope of FH = 8 5 ; therefore, GH ⊥ FH. D) The slope of GH = − 8 5 , and the slope of FH = − 5 8 ; therefore, GH ⊥ FH.

The equation of the slope is given by:
 m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
 For GH we have:
 m = (-4 - (-9)) / (-3 - 5)
 m = (5) / (-8)
 m = -5 / 8
 For FH we have:
 m = (-4 - 4) / (-3 - 2)
 m = (-8) / (-5)
 m = 8/5
 Answer:
 
C) The slope of GH = - 5/8, and the slope of FH = 8/5; therefore, GH ⊥ FH

There are 20 parrots at the animal sanctuary. Their population is increasing at a rate of 15% per year. There are also 24 snakes
worty [1.4K]
For the answer to the questions above,
A) Parrots are following a Geometric Progression of 15% increase.

20(1.15),  20(1.15)², 20(1.15)³,

Function  = 20(1.15)^n      Where n is at the end of year, n =1, 2, 3, ..

Snakes are increasing by 4.

28, 32, 36,....

Function =  24 + 4n          n = number of end year,      n =1, 2, 3,...

<span>B) After 10 years:              </span>
Parrot =  20(1.15)¹⁰    = 80.91115471

Snakes =  24 + 4(10) = 64

<span>C) After what time they are the same: </span>
We use trial and error:


Test:  n                             20(1.15^n)                        (24 + 4n)
          1                                    23                                   28
          2                                    26.45                              32
<span>          3                                    30.41                             36    </span>
          4                                    34.98                              40
          5                                    40.23                              44
          6                                    46.26                              48
          7                                    53.20                              52
          8                                    61.18                              56
          9                                    70.36                              60

After year 7, the Parrots increases far more.
<span>At year 7 they are roughly the same.</span>

Consider line A whose equation is y = -10x + 8. If line B is perpendicular to line A and has a y-intercept at y = 3, what is the
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

C) . y=(1/10)x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of the line is y=-10x+8

It is in the form of y=mx+c where m is the slope of the line. Now on comparision we get m1=-10.

We knoew that two lines are perpendicular iff the product of their slopes is equal to -1.

m1*m2=-1

the slope of the recquired line =\frac{-1}{-10}=\frac{1}{10}

The equation of a line is typically written as y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Given the y intercept of the recquired line (b)=3

The recquired line is

y=mx+b

y=(1/10)x+3

What is the answer to - 3/7 m=12
Triss [41]
Solve for m:
(-3 m)/7 = 12

Multiply both sides of (-3 m)/7 = 12 by -7/3:
(-7 (-3) m)/(3×7) = (-7)/3×12

(-7)/3×(-3)/7 = (-7 (-3))/(3×7):
(-7 (-3))/(3×7) m = (-7)/3×12

(-7)/3×12 = (-7×12)/3:
(-7 (-3) m)/(3×7) = (-7×12)/3

(-7)/7 = (7 (-1))/7 = -1:
(-3-1 m)/3 = (-7×12)/3

(-3)/3 = (3 (-1))/3 = -1:
--1 m = (-7×12)/3

(-1)^2 = 1:
m = (-7×12)/3

12/3 = (3×4)/3 = 4:
m = -74
-7×4 = -28:
Answer: m = -28
