Answer:

Therefore, the slope of the red line must be -7

Step-by-step explanation:

If the two lines are said to be perpendicular each other, then the multiplicative of their slope is -1.

Let "m1" be the slope a line and "m2" be the slope of the perpendicular line.

So, m1*m2 = -1

Here, let's take "m1" be the slope of the green line and "m2" be the slope of the red line.

They said to be perpendicular to each other.

So, m1*m2 = -1

Given: m1 = 1/7

NOw plug in m1 = 1/7 in the above statement, we get

1/7 *m2 = -1

Let's find the value of m2, multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/7

The reciprocal of 1/7 is 7.

7*1/7*m2 = -1*7

7/7.m2 = -7

m2 = -7

Therefore, the slope of the red line must be -7

(6x+2)^2=36x^2+Bx+4 How Would You Answer That. I'm Not That Good At Algebra.
Verizon [17]

Let's multiply out the equation 6x+2 times 6x+2 using the square. Draw a 2 by 2 bow and put the equation across the bottom and verically. Multiply across to get this. 6x times 6x =36x^2 6x times two =12x do it again and get 12x. 2*2=4. That means x would equal 24.

HELP! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!
goblinko [34]

Answer:

(2x+16) + (x) = 180

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribed inside a circle will be supplementary angles, meaning that A+C=180, and B+D=180. A+C is not given in the answers below, but B+D is, so that is the correct answer.

Hope this helps! Please give brainliest!!
