Answer:

x=2 is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (2,6).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a graph of line whose equation is y=-4 and passing point (-8,-4) and (8,-4).

We need to find the equation of line which is perpendicular to y=-4

As we know y=-4 is horizontal line on coordinate plane.

If a line perpendicular to y=-4 then it must be vertical line.

Equation of vertical line : x=h

Passing point of line (2,6)

x would be same for all points in vertical line.

Required equation of line: x=2

Thus, x=2 is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (2,6).

What is true about 3 squared x 4 squared

BARSIC [14]

Hello there, and thank you for posting your question here on brainly.

Short answer: C. Product of 2 rational numbers = a rational number.

Why?

The numbers are both rational because squared is a result of a number multiplied by itself. Like (3^2 = 9). It turns out as a rational number because you're multiplying by two positive numbers, which always turns out as a rational number. (3^2 * 4^2 ==> 144) [3^2 = 9] [4^2 = 16]

Hope this helped you! ♥

The students want to make care packages for unhoused people for the winter season. They would like to put 5 boxes of tissues int

Ratling [72]

Answer:

2250

Step-by-step explanation:

From my understanding you have 450 packs to make and you need to put 5 tissue boxes in each one so we would just simply multiply 450 packages by 5 tissue boxes each package and get 2250

The total surface area of a cuboid is 112cm^2. find the value of x. values given: 10cm and 2cm.

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

x= 5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

we will need to put the information we currently have into an equation:

10•2•x= 112

then multiply 10•2 which equals 20...then the equation wil turn out like this:

20•x=112

now you will isolate the x... but how?? dividing 20 by itslef.. cancelling it out, and if you do one thing to the other side of the equation, you have to do it to the other...

20/20•x=112/20

you will end up with x= 122/20

you can use a calculator for this step, but to practice long division... (check the screen shot thingie)

hope this helped !! ^^

One hour after yolanda started walking from x to y, a distance of 45 miles, bob started walking along the same road from y to x.

Rufina [12.5K]

<span>Answer: When bob starts walking The distance between them is 45-3 = 42 miles If they meet at time t then Yolanda would have walked X/3 minutes and Bob would have walked (42-X)/4 mins X/3 = (42-X)/4 so X = 18 Bob would have walked 42-18 = 24 miles.</span>
