Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. So if the slope is -2/5...to find the negative reciprocal, " flip " the slope and change the sign.
So we flip -2/5 and we get 5/-2...and now we change the sign...and we get 5/2. So our perpendicular slope will be 5/2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
→ Expand brackets
→ Add 8 to both sides to collect the whole numbers
→ Add -4m to both sides to collect the m terms
→ Divide both sides by -10 to isolate m
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of free throws = x
And the number of regular field goals = y
Total shots made by the team = 31
Equation for the shots will be,
x + y = 31 ------(1)
If the team gets 1 point for free throws and 2 points for a regular field goal,
x + 2y = 49 --------(2)
[total points gained by the team = 49]
1). Option (2) is the correct option.
2). Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2),
(x + 2y) - (x + y) = 49 - 31
y = 18
Therefore, number of regular field goals made by the team = 18
If M <span>is the midpoint of AB then AB = 2AM
8x - 6 = 2(3x + 3)
8x - 6 = 6x + 6
8x - 6x = 6 + 6
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
AM = 3x + 3 = 3*6 + 3 = 18 + 3 = 21 units
