Answer: They cannot meet because two skew lines do not intersect each other.


Explanation:


Skew lines is a concept used in geometry to define lines that do not intersect each other but are not parallel.


In this case, the lines are not parallel because they lie in different planes, which in turn, do not intersect each other.


Therefore, runing the lnes in different planes and in different directions, they cannot not, in spite of not being parallel, intersect each other, which is called that the lines are skewed.


Donna's and Charlie's paths are an exelent illustration of what skew lines are: since Donna's and Charlie are in different levels, as long as each remains in parallel levels, their paths wiil not meet each other.

A body travels 10 meters during the first 5 seconds of its travel, and it travels a total of 30 meters over the first 10 seconds
meriva
The answer is 4 m/s.

In the first 5 seconds, a body travelled 10 meters. In the first 10 seconds of the travel, the body travelled a total of 30 meters, which means that in the last 5 seconds, it travelled 20 meters (30m + 10m).
The relation of speed (v), distance (d), and time (t) can be expressed as:
v = d/t

We need to calculate the speed of the second 5 seconds of the travel:
d = 20 m (total 30 meters - first 10 meters)
t = 5 s (time from t = 5 seconds to t = 10 seconds)

Thus:
v = 20m / 5s = 4 m/s

Algebra 1: Factoring Polynomials Factor the common factor out of each expression: 40n^4m^2+40n^3m^3-32n^3
Nina [5.8K]
Taking out the greatest common factor

GCF of 40, 40 and 32  = 8
GCF of n^4, n^3 and n^3  is n^3

so the factors are

8n^3(5nm^2 +5m^3 - 4)

Answer:

y-5x-7=0

Step-by-step explanation:

m = -2-3/1-2

m=5

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-2=5(x+3)

y-2=5x +5

y-5x-7=0

Solve graphically the inequality \[ x ≥ 2 \]
Xelga [282]

1) Graph the corresponding equation \( x = 2 \); this will split the plane into two regions. One of the region represents the solution set.

2) Select a point situated in any of the two regions obtained and test the inequality. If the point selected is a solution, then all the region is the solution set. If the selected point is not a solution, then the other (second) region represents the solution set.

3) Test: In this example, let us for example select the point with coordinates (3 , 2) which is in the region to the right of the line x = 2. If you substitute x in the inequality \( x ≥ 2 \) by 3 it becomes \( 3 ≥ 2 \) which is a true statement and therefore (3 , 2) is a solution. Hence, we can conclude that the region to the right of the vertical line x = 2 is a solution set including the line itself which is shown as a solid line because of the inequality symbol \( ≥ \) contains the \( = \) symbol. The solution set is represented by the blue hash region in the graph below including the line x = 2.
