Answer: \dfrac{1}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of a line : y = 8x + 5

We know that general Slope-intercept form of equation is given by :-

y=mx+c, where m is the slope of the line.

When we compare the given equation the general slope intercept form of equation , we get

Slope of line = 8

We know that the product of slopes of two perpendicular line is -1.

Let m be the slope of  line that is perpendicular to the line y = 8x + 5, then we have

-8\times m=-1\\\\\Rightarrow\ m=\dfrac{1}{8}

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the missing side

from what we have, the triangle is a right angled triangle

In this kind of triangle, the Pythagoras’ theorem works

The square of the side facing the right angle ( marked x here) is equal to the sum of the squares of the two other sides

We have this as;

x^2 = 5^2 + 12^2

x^2 = 25 + 144

x^2 = 169

x = √169

x = 13

A scale drawing of a square has a side length of 9 inches. The drawing has a scale of 1 in. : 5 mi. Find the actual perimeter an
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Area = 2025 miles²

Perimeter = 180 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Scale of drawing = 1 inch : 5 miles

Length of side of the scale drawing = 9 inches

To find The actual perimeter and area of the square, we need ;

Actual length of the drawing :

1 inch = 5 miles

9 inches = (5 × 9) miles = 45 miles

Hence,

Area of a square = a²

Where a = side length

Actual side length = 45 miles

Actual area of square = 45² = 2025 miles²

Actual Perimeter of square :

Perimeter of a square = 4a

a = side length

Actual perimeter = 4(45) = 180 miles
