If the ratios are 2:12:16 the equation that should be used is 2x + 12x + 16x = 180.

First solve for x:

2x + 12x + 16x = 180

30x = 180

x = 6

Then plug x back in to find the degrees for each angle:

2x = 2(6) = 12

12x = 12(6) = 72

16x = 16(6) = 96

These are the degrees for each triangle: 12 degrees, 72 degrees, and 96 degrees which adds up to 180 degrees in total.

The equation, also at the top, is 2x + 12x + 16x = 180.

5. Find the point P along the directed line segment from X(-3, 3) to Y(6,-3) that divides
ASHA 777 [7]
Consider point P(x,y) such that P, X and Y are collinear,

As vectors

XP = XO + OZ where O(0,0)
XP = OZ - OX
XP= (x,y) - (-3,3)
XP = (x+3, y-3)

Similarly,

PY = (6-x, -3-y)

But XP= 2^PY

[x+3, y-3] = [2(6-x), 2(-3-y)]

Given both vectors are equal, as they go in the same direction, Solve for x and y accordingly:

x+3 = 12 - 2x

x = 3

y-3 = -6-2y

y = -1

Therefore, P(3,-1)

Find the equation of the line through point (5,1) and perpendicular to 5x−y=−3. Use a forward slash (i.e. "/") for fractions (e.
IRINA_888 [86]
Y = -1/5x + 2

A line perpendicular to another line has an opposite reciprocal slope. What opposite means is that you flip the sign (from - to + or from + to -) and reciprocal means that you flip the numerator and denominator (so if line A is perpendicular to line B and line As slope is -3, line Bs slope would be 1/3).

First find the slope of 5x - y = -3
Add y to both sides
5x = y - 3
Add 3 to both sides
y = 5x + 3

So the slope of the line is 5. That means the slope of of the perpendicular line is -1/5.

Plug the slope of the perpendicular line and the point (5, 1) into point slope form to solve the equation

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = -1/5(x - 5)
y - 1 = -1/5x + 1
y = -1/5x + 2
