Answer:

18 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call it's initial elevation x. Because it descends 3 miles, we now have x - 3. The question says it is now 15 miles above sea level, or x - 3 = 15, and adding 3 to both sides shows that x = 18 miles.

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = – 1 4 x – 8 and passes though the point (2, –4).
vivado [14]

The equation of the line is y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{29}{7}

Explanation:

The equation of the line is perpendicular to y=-14 x-8

The equation is of the form y=mx+b where m=-14

<u>Slope:</u>

The slope of the perpendicular line can be determined using the formula,

m_1 \cdot m_2=-1

-14 \cdot m_2=-1

       m_2=\frac{1}{14}

Thus, the slope of the line is m=\frac{1}{14}

<u>Equation of the line:</u>

The equation of the line can be determined using the formula,

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Substituting the slope m=\frac{1}{14} and the point (2,-4), we get,

y+4=\frac{1}{14}(x-2)

Simplifying, we get,

y+4=\frac{1}{14}x-\frac{1}{7}

     y=\frac{1}{14}x-\frac{1}{7}-4

     y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{29}{7}

Thus, the equation of the line is y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{29}{7}

Perimeter of a quarter circle is 17.85 what is the quarter circles radius
givi [52]

The radius of the given circle  is 2.84 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Given

The perimeter of a quarter table is 17.85

We need to find the circle's radius.

Step 2 :

The circle's perimeter is given by the formula, 2 \pi r where r represents the circle's radius

So from this we have ,

2 \pi r = 17.85

We can determine the radius by dividing the perimeter value by 2 \pi

= >  r = 17.85 divided by 2 \pi r

        = 2.84 [ taking  \pi  = \frac{22}{7}]

Step 3 :

Answer :

The radius of the given circle  is 2.84 units

Make a conjecture. How could the distance formula and slope be used to classify triangles and quadrilaterals in the coordinate p
Alexeev081 [22]
 the distance formula to find the length of the sides... opposite sides equal it could be a rectangle or parallelogram all sides equal, square or rhombus adjacent equal, kite and then the slope is used to check angles if the product of the 2 lines in -1 the lines are perpendicular (right angle) the the slopes of 2 lines are the same the sides are parallel.    

I think this is it ^_^
