Answer:

-1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular slopes are negative reciprocals

The slope of y=8x+5 is 8, because it is in slope intercept form: y=mx+b form, where m is the slope.

Negative:

8/1--> -8/1

Reciprocal:

Flip the numerator and denominator

-8/1--> -1/8

So, the perpendicular slope of 8 is -1/8

Sergei says that 10% of a number will always be less than 20% of any other number.

That's false.
Let's see an instance:
10% of 300=30
20% of 100=20
It doesn't work here so it's false

Point A(3,2) is on a circle whose center is C(−2,3). What is the radius of the circle?

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The radius of the circle is √26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since point A is on the circle, the distance between that point and the center of the circle is equal to the radius.

To find the distance between two points, the following equation should be used:

$x^{2} =(x_{A}- x_{C}) ^{2} + (y_{A}- y_{C}) ^{2}$

Replacing the numeric values:

$r^{2} =(3- (-2)) ^{2} + (2-3) ^{2}\\r^{2} =(5) ^{2} + (-1) ^{2}\\r=\sqrt{26}$

The radius of the circle is √26.
