Y = x - 28/5. The slope here is 1. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -1.

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(k,2)....x1 = k and y1 = 2
(7,0)...x2 = 7 and y2 = 0
sub
slope = (0 - 2) / (7 - k)
slope = -2 / ?......now if we want the slope to be -1..that means the number where the question mark is has to be 2....for that to happen, k has to be 5...because 7 - 5 = 2.

so ur answer is : k = 5

Answer:

(5,2) would be the K value for the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that perpendicular lines have inverse slopes, this means that they have the same number but with different signs, the line y=x-28/5 has a slope of 1 since 1 is the number that is multiplying the x, so the slope of the perpendicular line should be -1.

To calculate the value of K we need to use the formula for slope:

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}\\

We insert the values into the formula and clear for K:

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}\\m=\frac{0-2}{7-k}\\-1(7-k)=-2\\k=-2+7\\k=5

So now we know that the value of K would be 5.

Answer:

  62

Step-by-step explanation:

The enclosing rectangle is 24 units long and 12 units high. Its area is ...

  (24 units)(12 units) = 288 square units

The white circles obviously cover more than half the area, so the only viable answer choice is 62.

__

If you want to go to the trouble to actually figure it out, you can find the area of each circle using the area formula ...

  A = πr² = (3.14)(6²) = 113.04

Then both circles have an area of 2×113.04 = 226.08, and the shaded area is the difference between that and the rectangle area:

  shaded area = 288 -226.08 = 61.92 ≈ 62

15 and 17 pls.. 15 points!!!!
Maurinko [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

15) 50 ÷ 2 = 25

17) Mean = 301, Mode = 40-50

(10+20) ÷ 2 = 15, (20+30) ÷ 2 = 25, (30+40) ÷ 2 = 35

(40+50) ÷ 2 = 45, (50+60) ÷ 2 = 55, (60+70) ÷ 2 = 65

(70+80) ÷ 2 = 75

• 15×4 = 60, 25×8 = 200, 35×10 = 350, 45×12 = 540

55×10 = 550, 65×4 = 260, 75×2 = 150

Mean = (60+200+350+540+550+260+150) ÷ 7

= 2110 ÷ 7

= 301.4285....

= 301

Mode : the highest frequency
