Which statement explains how the lines 2x + y = 4 and y = one halfx + 4 are related?

Answer:

They are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem .

we will convert the equations in slope intercept form.

Slope intercept  form of equation is y = mx+c

where m is slope of line and c is y intercept.

________________________________

equation 1 is

2x+y = 4

=> y =4 - 2x or y = -2x + 4

comparing it with y = mx + c

m = -2  , c = 4

_________________________________________

equation 2 is y = one halfx + 4 ( one half is same as 1/2)

so equation is

y = x/2 +4

comparing it with y = mx + c

m = 1/2  , c = 4

_________________________________________

Now lets evaluate options

They are parallel.  wrong option

For lines to be parallel slope should be same.

But here slope are different -2 and 1/2 .

Thus lines are not parallel.

__________________________________________

They are perpendicular.  correct option

For lines to be perpendicular, product of slope should be equal to -1.

-2*1/2 = -1

we can see that product of slope should be equal to -1 .

Thus lines are  perpendicular

______________________________________

They are the same line.  wrong option

For lines to be same both slope and y intercept should  be same.

Y intercept is same but the slopes are different -2 and 1/2  .

Thus lines are not  the same line.

__________________________________________

They are not related.       wrong option

As we have found that the lines are perpendicular .

So this option is intuitively wrong

Round your answer to the nearest hundredth BC=?
miskamm [114]

Answer:

BC = 1.71

Step-by-step explanation:

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legs and the hypotenuse  in a right triangle

α = 70°

a: adjacent  = BC

h: hypotenuse = 5

sin α = o/h

cos α= a/h

tan α = o/a

we see that it has (angle, adjacent, hypotenuse)

we look at which meets those data between the sine, cosine and tangent

is the cosine

cos α = a/h

Now we replace the values ​​and solve

cos 70 = a/5

0.34202 = a/5

0.34202 * 5 = a

1.7101 = a

round to the neares hundredth

a = 1.7101 = 1.71

BC = 1.71

Solve the equation 1/2(16x – 6) = 2.
Lorico [155]

Answer:

x = 0.625 or 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2(16x-6) = 2

8x - 3 = 3

8x = 3 + 3

8x/8 = 9/8

x = 0.625
