For this case we find the slopes of each of the lines:

The g line passes through the following points:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 3,2)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 5,9)

So, the slope is:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {9-2} {5-3} = \frac {7} {2}

Line h passes through the following points:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 9,10)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 2,12)

So, the slope is:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}}{x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {12-10} {2-9} = \frac {2} {- 7} = - \frac {2} {7}

By definition, if two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal. If the lines are perpendicular then the product of their slopes is -1.

It is observed that lines g and h are not parallel. We verify if they are perpendicular:

\frac {7} {2} * - \frac {2} {7} = \frac {-14} {14} = - 1

Thus, the lines are perpendicular.

Answer:

The lines are perpendicular.

Joshua currently does a total of 8 pushups each day. He plans to increase the number of pushups he does each day by 2 pushups un
Maslowich

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y equal number of pushups a day. When x = 1, y = 8. When x = 2, y = 10. 10 is a factor of 30. Multiply y by 3. However, since x increases by 1 when y increases by 2, multiply x by 6 (2*3). That equals 12. Therefore, when x = 12, y = 30.

Joe is making $485 payments monthly, but the amount gets interest on a yearly basis, not monthly, so the amount that yields interest is 485*12

also, keep in mind, we're assuming is compound interest, as opposed to simple interest

The route to an ancient pyramid is 79 miles long.
Nostrana [21]

The route to an ancient pyramid is 79 miles long; if 20 miles is travelled each day for 3 days, the distance travelled in the fourth day would be 19 miles.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let the distance travelled in the first day be 20 miles. If the same time was travelled for 3 days, hence:

3(20) + x = 79

x = 19 miles

The route to an ancient pyramid is 79 miles long; if 20 miles is travelled each day for 3 days, the distance travelled in the fourth day would be 19 miles.

Ida is cutting a 11/12 foot wooden board into 3/16 foot sections to do some detail work on a model she is building. How many who
zlopas [31]
You have to give them the same denominator so multiply 11/12 by 4 and 3/16 by 3. giving you 44/48 and 9/48. then divied 44 by 9 giving you 4.8888
there for there are 4 whole 3/16 sections of the 11/12 board
