<h3>Answer:  8/5</h3>

Any two parallel lines always have the same slope (but different y intercepts)

The equation of the green line is y = (8/5)x+6

The equation of the red line is y = (8/5)x-3

Slope intercept form is y = mx+b with m as the slope and b as the y intercept.

The slopes must be the same so that each time the line goes up some amount, we move to the right the same amount. Think of a set of stairs to possibly visualize what I mean. If the slopes are different (even slightly), then the lines will intersect at some point and we wouldn't have parallel lines.

Find the measure of &lt;C in the following figure: ​
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

angle C =160 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

since the given triangle is an isosceles triangle their base angles must be equal. So,

x - 10 =x/2

2(x - 10) =x

2x - 20 = x

2x - x = 20

x = 20

for angle B

x - 10

20 - 10

10 degree

for angle A

x/2

20/2

10

For angle c

angle A + angle B + angle C =180 degree (sum of interior angle of a triangle)

10 + 10 + angle C =180

20 + angle C =180

angle C =180 - 20

angle C =160 degree

Miguel and Maria are washing the windows in their home. Together, they can complete the task in 1.5 hours. If Maria can wash win
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.

x: amount of time Miguel uses to complete the task.

y: amount of time Maria uses to complete the task.

We write the system of equations:

x + y = 60

y = (1/2) x

Solving the system we have:

x = 40 minutes

y = 20 minutes

Answer:

it take her to wash them by herself about:

y = 20 minutes
