Answer:

The equation of the line is given as 2 y - x = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the slope of the given line = 1/2

The point on the line is (x0,y0) = (6,5)

Now, by POINT SLOPE FORMULA:

The equation of line with (x0,y0) and slope m is written as:

(y - y0) = m (x-x0)

So, here the equation of line is given as

$( y- 5) = \frac{1}{2} (x-6)\\\implies 2( y-5) = ( x-6)\\or, 2y - 10 = x - 6\\\implies 2y - x = 4$

Hence the equation of the line is 2 y - x = 4.

Answer:

$\frac{1}{16}$ $\frac{10}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a reciprocal is a number that when multiplied by a given number gives 1 as product.

16 * x = 1

x = 1/16

9/10 * x = 1

x = 10/9

Answer:

the answer is 611.2

how,-3.3x

611.2

there before 614.2 there come always+if there is nothing

then,there is- before-3.3x then rule=

so we have to substract it

Which of the following in an identity?

sammy [17]

By "which is an identity" they just mean "which trigonometric equation is true?"

What you have to do is take one of these and sort it out to an identity you know is true, or...

*FYI: You can always test identites like this:
Use the short angle of a 3-4-5 triangle, which would have these trig ratios:
sinx = 3/5 cscx = 5/3
cosx = 4/5 secx = 5/4
tanx = 4/3 cotx = 3/4
Then just plug them in and see if it works. If it doesn't, it can't be an identity!

Let's start with c, just because it seems obvious.
The Pythagorean identity states that sin²x + cos²x = 1, so this same statement with a minus is obviously not true.

Next would be d. csc²x + cot²x = 1 is not true because of a similar Pythagorean identity 1 + cot²x = csc²x. (if you need help remembering these identites, do yourslef a favor and search up the Magic Hexagon.)

Next is b. Here we have (cscx + cotx)² = 1. Let's take the square root of each side...cscx + cotx = 1. Now you should be able to see why this can't work as a Pythagorean Identity. There's always that test we can do for verification...5/3 + 3/4 ≠ 1, nor is (5/3 + 3/4)².

By process of elimination, a must be true. You can test w/ our example ratios:
sin²xsec²x+1 = tan²xcsc²x
(3/5)²(5/4)²+1 = (4/5)²(5/3)²
(9/25)(25/16)+1 = (16/25)(25/9)
(225/400)+1 = (400/225)
(9/16)+1 = (16/9)
(81/144)+1 = (256/144)
(81/144)+(144/144) = (256/144)
(256/144) = (256/144)

HELP MUTIPLE CHICE IM BEING TIMED GEOMETRY PICKING SOMEONE FOR Brainliest

ollegr [7]

Answer:

1. SSS

2. Q and S

3. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

1. SSS similarity: If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.

Triangles NLM and WUV are similar by SSS similarity, because

$\dfrac{NL}{WU}=\dfrac{36}{63}=\dfrac{4}{7}\\ \\\dfrac{LM}{UV}=\dfrac{40}{70}=\dfrac{4}{7}\\ \\\dfrac{NM}{WV}=\dfrac{24}{42}=\dfrac{4}{7}$

2. Completed steps:

a) draw a circle with center at P and radius r

b) draw a circle with center at Q and radius r

c) using compass, measure the distance between two points of intersection of the first circle with angle rays

d) using point of intersection of the second circle with PQ as a center, draw the circle of radius equal to the distance from c) to get point S

Last step: connect points Q and S, line QS will be parallel to line r.

3. If lines MN and UT are parallel, then angles MUT and VMN are congruent; also angles UTN and MNV are congruent.

AA similarity: In two triangles, if two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar .

By AA similarity, triangles VMN and VUT are similar, thus

$\dfrac{VM}{VU}=\dfrac{VN}{VT}\\ \\\dfrac{VM}{VM+8}=\dfrac{49-14}{49}\\ \\49VM=35(VM+8)\\ \\49VM=35VM+280\\ \\49VM-35VM=280\\ \\14VM=280\\ \\VM=20\ units$
