3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

This means that if a line is perpendicular to a line that has slope m, then the slope of the line is -1 / m. For example, we found that the slope of the line y = (1/2)x + 3 is 1/2. Thus any line that is perpendicular to this line would have slope -2 /1 = -2.

Nicole bought six pounds of apples at $1.50 per pound. The store had a discount of $2 off her total purchase. Nicole and her fri

Andru [333]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of apples that Nicole bought was 6 pounds.

Each pound of apple cost $1.50

This means that the total cost of the 6 pounds of apple that Nicole bought would be

6 × 1.5 = $9

The store had a discount of $2 off her total purchase. This means that the amount that was paid is

9 - 2 = $7

If Nicole and her friend then divided the cost of the purchase evenly, let x represent the amount that each of them would pay. Therefore, the expression that can be used to determine how much Nicole and her friend each paid for the apples would be

x = 7/2

Use geometry words to describe a way to separate triangles into other triangles

zysi [14]

You can divide a triangle using medians. Let's name triangle ΔABC shown in figure 1. So you must start at one of the vertices and then bisect the opposite side. Let's start with the point A and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from B to D is equal to the length from D to C. So let's take the point B and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from A to E is equal to the length from E to C. The same reasoning happens with the point C. So we have, in figure 2, the triangle ΔABC divided into six triangles which all have the same area.
