keeping in mind that any line parallel to MN will have the same exact slope as MN's.

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{6})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{0-6}{4-2}\implies \cfrac{-6}{2}\implies \cfrac{-3}{1}\implies -3~~\checkmark \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{8}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{10}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{10-1}{5-8}\implies \cfrac{9}{-3}\implies \cfrac{3}{-1}\implies -3~~\checkmark

Answer:

WX (2,6) and (4,0)

TU (8,1) and (5,10)

Step-by-step explanation:

We just need to calculate the slope of each of the possible answers and we'll know which is parallel. To be parallel, the other slope also has to be -3.

To calculate the slope, we do the difference of Y values over the difference X values.

WX (2,6) and (4,0)

S = \frac{6 - 0}{2 - 4} = \frac{6}{-2}=-3

This slope is -3, so we have <u>one</u> right answer already, let's look for another.

PQ (5,6) and (8,7)

S = \frac{6 - 7}{5 - 8} = \frac{-1}{-3} = \frac{1}{3}

This is a perpendicular to MN, not a parallel.

RS (1,3) and (4,2)

S = \frac{3 - 2}{1 - 4} = \frac{1}{-3}

Not parallel, nor perpendicular.

TU (8,1) and (5,10)

S = \frac{1 - 10}{8 - 5} = \frac{-9}{3} = -3

So, TU is also parallel to MN

Viktor [21]
Okay. First thngs first, let's divide each of them. 2.6/1.3 is 2. Now in terms of exponents, we would just simply subtract the powers, because we are doing division. 9 - 2 is 7. The value of the expression is 2 * 10^7. Even writing the problem out in number form (2,600,000,000/130), you can still see the answer to the problem as 20 million. The answer is B.

Find the area and perimeter
Ivenika [448]

Answer: area = 379.7 mm²

Perimeter = 95.84 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

The composite shape contains a semi circle and a trapezoid.

The area of a semi circle is

1/2 × πr²

Radius = diameter/2

Radius = 20/2 = 10 mm

Area = 1/2 × 3.14 × 10 = 15.7 mm²

Area of trapezoid is expressed as

1/2(a + b)h

Area = 1/2 × (20 + 32)14

Area = 1/2 × 52 × 14) = 364mm²

Area of the composite shape is

15.7 + 364 = 379.7 mm²

Formula for determining the perimeter of the semicircle is

1/2 × πd

Perimeter = 1/2 × 3.14 × 20 = 31.4mm

Looking at the attached photo, we would determine the slant height,h, by applying Pythagorean theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

h² = 12² + 14² = 340

h = √340/= 18.44

Perimeter of the composite shape is

31.4 + 14 + 32 + 18.44 =95.84 mm
