In a triangle, the total angle is 180 degrees. A straight line is always 180 degrees. With this in mind, the following can be obtained:
These are simultaneous equations.
Answer:
<h2>w=6</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
7w-6=3w+18 I expanded the bracket
+6 on both sides
7w=3w+24
-3w on both sides
4w=24
divide both sides by 4
w=6
W ^10
( little 10 though like the -5 is )
X would equal 9. Subtract 18 from both sides then divide by two to get 9 as X
Answer: Choice D
(a-e)/f
=======================================
Explanation:
Points D and B are at locations (e,f) and (a,0) respectively.
Find the slope of line DB to get
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (0-f)/(a-e)
m = -f/(a-e)
This is the slope of line DB. We want the perpendicular slope to this line. So we'll flip the fraction to get -(a-e)/f and then flip the sign from negative to positive. That leads to the final answer (a-e)/f.
Another example would be an original slope of -2/5 has a perpendicular slope of 5/2. Notice how the two slopes -2/5 and 5/2 multiply to -1. This is true of any pair of perpendicular lines where neither line is vertical.
