Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there !

2.25x + 15 = 9.5x + 0.5

15 - 0.5 = 9.5x - 2.25x

14.5 = 7.25x

x = 14.50/7.25

x = 2

Good luck !

Find the slope of each line and then determine if the lines are parallel, perpendicular or neither. If a value is not an integer

Aleonysh [2.5K]

As given by the question

There are given that the point of two-line

$\begin{gathered} (1,\text{ 7) and (5, 5)} \\ (-1,\text{ -3) and (1, 1)} \end{gathered}$

Now,

From the condition of a parallel and perpendicular line

If the slopes are equal then the lines are parallel

If the slopes are negative reciprocal then the lines are perpendicular

If the slopes are neither of the above are true then lines are neither

Then,

First, find the slope of both of line

So,

For first-line, from the formula of slope

$\begin{gathered} m_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ m_1=\frac{5_{}-7_{}}{5_{}-1_{}} \\ m_1=-\frac{2}{4} \\ m_1=-\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}$

Now,

For second-line,

$\begin{gathered} m_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ m_1=\frac{1_{}-(-3)_{}}{1-(-1)_{}} \\ m_1=\frac{4}{2} \\ m_1=2 \end{gathered}$

The given result of the slope is negative reciprocal because

$\begin{gathered} -\frac{1}{2}=-(-\frac{2}{1}) \\ -\frac{1}{2}=2 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the slope of line1 is -1/2, and slope of line2 is 2 and the lines are perpendicular.

The first three terms of a sequence are given. Round to the nearest thousandth (if

tangare [24]

The 7th term of the sequence to the nearest thousandth is 223.949

<h3>What are geometric sequences?</h3>

These are sequence that increases in an exponential form.

The formula for calculating the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as:

Tn = ar^n-1

Given the following parameters

a = 75

r = 1.2

n = 7

Substitute the given parameter into the formula

T7 = 75(1.2)^6
T7 = 223.949

Hence the 7th term of the sequence to the nearest thousandth is 223.949
