An important postulate in geometry states: "Through Point P, there is only one line parallel to ". What is the equation of line

l, parallel to AB that passes through Point X?

Answer:

y=(-5/12)x+(95/12)

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the line AB

m=(3-8)/(2+10)=-5/12

step 2

Find the slope of the line parallel to AB

we know that

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are the same

so

the slope is m=-5/12

step 3

Find the equation of the line l parallel to AB that passes through Point X

The equation of the line into point slope form is equal to

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y-10=(-5/12)(x+5)

y=(-5/12)x-(25/12)+10

y=(-5/12)x+(95/12)

What is the probability of getting an odd number on a fair die and a tail on a coin flip?
Leokris [45]
Odd number on a fair die:
50%, as 1,3,5 are all odd and there are 6 sides on a die
tails: 50% as 2 sides.
But if you are asking together: for each possible side on the die, there is a possibility of heads or tails
1: H T
2: H T
3: H T
4: H T
5: H T 
6: H T
so 12 possibilities.
to roll an odd number and have a coin land on tails
1: T
3: T
5: T
3 different possibilities satisfy that
so then the answer becomes: 3/12
so 25%

Can someone help me?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

I'm not sure from my answer but I'm going to try

A =  { a^2  -  4  = 0 }

A = { a^2  = 0+ 4 }

A = { a^2  = 4}

Take root of both sides

A = {a = 2}

A = {2}

B = { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

C = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7}

i) A\B

= {2} \ {-2,-1,0,1,2}

= ⌀ ( "null set" )

ii) (A\B) \C

= ( {2} \ {-2,-1,0,1,2} ) \ C

= ⌀ \ C

= ⌀ \ { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7}

= ⌀ ( "null set" )

iii) (A ∪ B) \ C

= ( { 2 } ∪ { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2} ) \ C

= { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2} \C

= { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2} \ { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7}

= { -2, -1, 0 }

iv) ( A\B) ∩ ( A\C)

= (  { 2 } \ {-2,-1,0,1,2} ) ∩ ( { 2 } \ { { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7} )

= ⌀ ∩ ⌀

= ⌀

v) ( A ∩ B ) \ C

= ( { 2 }  ∩  { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 } ) \ C

= { 2 } \ { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 }

= ⌀ "null set"

umka21 [38]
When the second number is divided by the first, the result is ...

First table
   9/3 = 3
   12/4 = 3
   20/5 = 4 . . . . result is not consistent. NOT a proportional relationship

Second table
   25/20 = 1.25
   30/24 = 1.25
   40/32 = 1.25 . . . . result is consistent. A PROPORTIONAL RELATIONSHIP

Third table
   12/4 = 3
   15/5 = 3
   24/6 = 4 . . . . result is not consistent. NOT a proportional relationship

Fourth table
   4/3 ≈ 1.33
   9/6 = 1.5
   16/12 ≈ 1.33 . . . . result is not consistent. NOT a proportional relationship
