Is it possible for 2 lines with negative slopes to be perpendicular? Why or why not?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Setler [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, for example:

2/3 and -3/2

It is not possible for 2 lines to have negative slopes and be perpendicuar. This is because a slope must be negated to get the perpendicular slope.

What is the decimal multiplier to decrease by 2.7%?
MatroZZZ [7]

Multiplying by 1 keeps it the same. A number greater than 1 would be an increase and a number below 1 would be a decrease.

The decrease is 2.7% which is written as 0.027 as a decimal.

Subtract that from 1:

1 - 0.027 = 0.973

The multiplier would be 0.973

The correct factorization of 12x'2 - 157x - 40: A) (3x -8)(4x - 5) B) (3x - 40)(4x + 1) C) (12x - 1)(x + 40) D) (12x - 5)(x-8)​
irinina [24]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

12x² - 157x - 40

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 12 × - 40 = - 480 and sum = - 157

The factors are + 3 and - 160

Use these factors to split the x- term

12x² + 3x - 160x - 40 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms

= 3x(4x + 1) - 40(4x + 1) ← factor out (4x + 1) from each term

= (4x + 1)(3x - 40) ← in factored form → B
