Answer:

y = 3x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -1/3 x +2

The slope is -1/3

We want a line perpendicular to it

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes

The new slope is -(-3/1) = 3

We have a slope  m=3 and a point (5,6)

We will use point slope form to find the line

y-y-1 = m(x-x1)

y-6 = 3(x-5)

In slope intercept form

Distribute

y-6 = 3x-15

Add 6 to each side

y-6+6 = 3x-15+6

y = 3x-9

Answer:

34. E 2 1/2

36. C 6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

34. ABC's triangle has 4, as it is equivalent to ADE's triangle's 10. I added 4 and 6 because the whole triangle shown is ADE. Then I did 10/4.

36. The reasoning is that on the other side, there is 9cm and 6cm which is equivalent to AB and 4cm

It goes like: 9/6 = AB/4

9 times 4 equals 36, and 36 divided by 6 is 6. Therefore the answer is 6cm.

#2 Find the segment length indicated. Assume that lines which appear to be tangent are tangent. *
gregori [183]

The angle of a tangent and a radius is a right angle.

The missing length would be the hypotenuse. Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve.

X = SQRT(12^2 + 16^2)

X = SQRT(144 + 256)

x = SQRT(400)

X = 20
