5 0

Answer:

The answer here would be 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a and b are both equal distances from 0, then adding the together would equal 0. Since a is the inverse of b, using any number and its inverse will show you why the answer is 0. For example, if b is 9 then a would be -9. Adding these together equals 0.

5 points Two lines are represented by equations: 10x - 15y = 21 and y = kx + 5. What value of k will make lines perpendicular?

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

10x - 15y = 21

15y = 10x - 21

y = ⅔x - 7/5

slope of line is ⅔

slope of any perpendicular to line is -3/2

y = kx + k

slope of line is k

k = -3/2

A scuba diver swam 96 feet beneath the surface of the lake. He then climbs up 49 feet. What is his depth now? Please explain and

geniusboy [140]

0 = Surface level

Beneath means subtraction.
0 - 96 = -96

Climbs means addition.

-96 + 49 = -47

The scuba diver is -47 feet beneath the surface of the lake.
