Why it is not possible for two lines to be parallel and perpendicular?

Parallel lines have the same slope. for example, the two lines y = 6x + 3 and
y = 6x - 5 are parallel because they have the same slope, 6x.

the slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals, which means that you would flip the numbers of the fraction and make it negative. for example, the opposite reciprocal of -3x is 1/3x.

also, parallel lines never intersect, whereas perpendicular lines intersect at a 90 degree angle.

therefore, it isnt possible for two lines to be both parallel and perpendicular.

Answer:

a) 34mi

b) 10mi

c) 44mi

d) by Calculating the amount of miles it would take John to go to school plus the amount of miles it would take Sara to go to school. Then add the sum of the amount of miles it took for both to go to school.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) explanation:

a^{2} +b^2=c^2

16^2+30^2=c^2

256 + 900 = c^2

c^2=1156

\sqrt{1156}=34mi

b) explanation:

a^{2} +b^2=c^2

6^2+8^2=c^2

36+64=c^2

c^2=100

\sqrt{100} =10mi

c) explanation: we already have all the data from John's house to Sara's House.

John's House to Sara's House = John's House to School + Sara's House to School.

Sara's House to School (Question #1) = 34mi

John's House to School (Question #2) = 10mi

34(mi) + 10(mi) = 44(mi)

d) explanation: explanation is on the answer

Military radar and missile detection systems are designed to warn a country of enemy attacks. A reliability question deals with
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a particular detection system has a 0.83 probability of detecting a missile attack.

Also each system is independent of the other to detect missile attack.

a)  the probability that a single detection system will detect an attack=0.83

b) the probability that at least one of the systems will detect the attack given two systems= 1-Prob no system detects

=1-(1-0.83)(1-0.83)\\\\=1-0.0289\\=0.9711

c)  If three systems are installed,  the probability that at least one of the systems  will detect the attack

= 1- none of the three systems detect attack

= (1-0.17^3)\\=1-0.004913\\=0.995087

d) We find that probability of detecting is more if we increase the system form 1 to 2 and 2 to 3.

Hence for safety and defence purpose multiple detection system is recommended.
