Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the coordinate plane, three of the vertices of the rectangle are located at (-1.25, -0.25),

(-1.25, 0.25), and (1.25, 0.25)

The length L of the shape will be:

L = 0.25 - ( - 0.25 )

L = 0.25 + 0.25

L = 0.5

The width of the shape will be:

W = 1.25 - ( - 1.25)

W = 1.25 + 1.25

W = 2.5

Perimeter P = 2L + 2W

Substitute the Length and the width into the formula

P = 2(0.5) + 2(2.5)

P = 1 + 5

P = 6 metres

Therefore, the perimeter of the shape is 6 metres

Answer:

5 = 5

5 < 6

7 > 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The two slashes is the equal sign, comparing two numbers that are of the same value. The sign below that means "less than," and 5 is less than 6. The sign below the "less than" sign is the "greater than" sign, and in the given example, 7 is GREATER THAN 6.

Is line 1 (1,5) (3,-2) and like 2 (-3,2) (4,0) perpendicular of parallel?

Lera25 [3.4K]

Slope Formula: $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

So remember that perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals to each other and parallel lines have the same slope. To find out if they are either parallel or perpendicular, plug the pair of points into the slope formula to find their slopes:

$\textsf{Line 1}\\\\\frac{5-(-2)}{1-3}=-\frac{7}{2}\\\\\textsf{Line 2}\\\\\frac{0-2}{4-(-3)}=-\frac{2}{7}$

Since these slopes aren't the same nor are they negative reciprocals to each other, the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

Can someone help me solve this step by step?

patriot [66]

Answer:

41 and 77

Step-by-step explanation:

x: his age the first time he went to space

y: his age the second time he went to space

the second time he went to space he was 5 years younger than twice the age when he went his first time, then:

y = 2x - 5

the sum of both ages is 118, then:

x + y = 118

If you replace y = 2x - 5 in x + y =118:

x + 2x - 5 = 118

3x = 123

x = 41

replacing x:

41 + y = 118

y = 118 - 41

y = 77

so when he was 77, he was 5 years younger than twice 41 ( 41*2 = 82 => 82 - 5 =77)

Stels [109]

We have been given that Sarah invests her graduation money of $1,750 in an annuity that pays an interest rate of 6% compounded annually. We are asked to write an exponential function for her investment growth.

We will use compound interest formula to solve our given problem.

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$ , where
