PLEASE HELP ME IM LOST! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!! ABC has vertices A(0,6) B(4,6) C(1,3). Sketch a graph of ABC and use it to find
Paul [167]
The orthocenter is the point where the three altitudes meet.
sketch the graph and you will see that AB is a horizontal line, the altitude is a vertical line through the point (1,3), so the equation of this altitude is x=1

next, find another altitude. I'll use the altitude of BC.
the slope of BC is (6-3)/(4-1)=1, so the slope of the altitude, which is perpendicular to BC going through the point A (0,6), is -1, the equation of the altitude of BC is y=-x+6
the system of equation : x=1
                                       y=-x+6
has a solution (1, 5)
the solution is where the two lines meet, the meeting point is the orthocenter. 

Double check by find the equation for other altitude:
slope of AC: (3-6)/(1-0)=-3
slope of altitude of AC: 1/3
equation of altitude of AC: y=(1/3)x+b
the altitude of AC goes through point B (4,6), so we can find out b by plug x=4, y=6 in the equation: 6=(1/3)*4+b, b=14/3
y=(1/3)x+14/3
Is (1,5) also a solution to this equation? Plug x=1 in the equation, we get y=5, so yes, (1,5) is a point on the third altitude.

You have a part-time job. You earn $7.75 per hour. If you work 20 hours
katovenus [111]

Answer:

F. $155

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we simply need to multiply the base hourly pay by the amount of hours worked to find the straight-time pay for each week.

$7.75 * 20 = $155

Thus, your weekly pay will be $155.

Cheers.

Based on the polynomial reminder theorem, what is the value of the function when x= -5
densk [106]

Answer:

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a polynomial in x

F (x)= x^4 + 12x^3 + 30x^2 - 12x + 70

We have to find the remainder when the above polynomial is divided by x+5

Remainder theorem says that f(x) gives remainder R when divided by polynomial x-a means f(a) = R

Applying the above theorem we can say that value of the function when x =-5

= Remainder when f is divided by x+5

= F(-5)

Substitute the value of -5 in place of x

= (-5)^4 + 12(-5)^3 + 30(-5)^2 - 12(-5) + 70

= 625-1500+750+60+70

= 5

Hence answer is 5

You are trying to recreate flubber because you are obsessed with that movie and you thought it was the coolest. you take 70% sli
german

Let x be the amount (gal) of the 40% slime solution you end up using. You want to end up with 120 gal of the 50% solution, so that you would use 120-x gal of the 70% solution.

You want the final solution to consist of 50% slime, or 60 gal of slime. Each gal of the 40% solution contributes 0.4 gal of slime, while each gal of the 70% solution contributes 0.7 gal of slime. This means

0.4x+0.7(120-x)=0.5\cdot120=60

\implies0.4x+84-0.7x=60

\implies24=0.3x

\implies x=80

so the answer is B.
