Line v passes through points (1, 12) and (10, 7). The slope of line w as improper fraction is \frac{9}{5}

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, two points are (1, 12) and (10, 7)  

We have to find the slope of a line that is perpendicular to line passing through the above given two points.

Slope of a line that pass through \left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right) \text { and }\left(x_{2}, y_{2}\right) is given as:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

\text { Here, in our problem, } x_{1}=1, y_{1}=12 \text { and } x_{2}=10, y_{2}=7

\text { slope } m=\frac{7-12}{10-1}=\frac{-5}{9}

So, slope of line v is \frac{-5}{9}

Since<em> </em>line w is perpendicular to v,<em> the product of their slopes equals -1</em>

\text { slope line } v \times \text { slope of line } w=-1

\frac{-5}{9} \times \text { slope of line } w=-1

\text { Slope of line } w=\frac{9}{-5} \times(-1)=\frac{9}{5}

Hence, the slope of line w as improper fraction is \frac{9}{5}

Answer:

B) d=4t

Step-by-step explanation:

let's look at two points

1. t=0, d = 0

2. t = 1, d = 4

slope = change in vertical axis (d)/ change in horizontal axis (t)

change in d = 4 = d₂-d₁

change in t = 1 = t₂-t₁

slope = 4/1 = 4

vertical variable = slope * horizontal variable + horizontal axis intercept

d = 4 * t + horizontal axis intercept

horizontal axis intercept is the vertical axis variable (d) when the horizontal axis variable (t) is at 0. at t=0, d=0

thus, d = 4 * t + 0

d = 4t (B)

A cylinder has a height of 6 meters and a radius of 3 meters. What is its volume? Use ​ ≈ 3.14 and round your answer to the near
bija089 [108]

Answer:

169.56 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

» <u>Concepts</u>

The volume of a cylinder is how much space there is inside the cylinder. The formula to find the volume is πr²h, where r = radius and h = height. Once you get the volume, you have to add <unit>³.

» <u>Application</u>

We are given the radius as three meters and the height as six meters; we also have to use π as 3.14. Now, we just have to plug in these values into the aforementioned formula.

» <u>Solution</u>

  • <u></u>3.14*3^3*6
  • 3.14*9*6
  • 28.26*6
  • 169.56

Is √3,600 rational or irrational? Please help asap.
natima [27]

Answer:

\sqrt{3600} is rational

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers. The answer of square root of 3600 is 60 which is not a decimal or an irrational number and therefore it's rational
