Answer:

y = -1\frac{1}{2}x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

5 = −1½[−6] + b

9

-4 = b \\ \\ y = -1\frac{1}{2}x - 4

Perpendicular Lines have OPPOSITE MULTIPLICATIVE INVERSE <em>RATE</em><em> </em><em>OF</em><em> </em><em>CHANGES</em><em> </em>[<em>SLOPES</em>], so ⅔ becomes −3⁄2 [or −1½].

Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction?
jeka57 [31]
\dfrac{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}}{\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}}=\dfrac{\frac{y}{xy}-\frac{x}{xy}}{\frac{y}{xy}+\frac{x}{xy}}=\dfrac{\frac{y-x}{xy}}{\frac{y+x}{xy}}=\dfrac{(y-x)xy}{(y+x)xy}=\dfrac{y-x}{y+x}

Given: 4ABC, and BP is parallel to AC.<br> Prove: m21 + m22 + m23 = 180
Charra [1.4K]

Mathematical proofs are used to prove or disprove mathematical statements.

<h3>Mathematical theorems </h3>

The theorems to use are:

  • The sum of angles on a straight line is 180 degrees
  • Alternate angles are congruent

<h3>The proof</h3>

From the question, we have: \triangle ABC

This means that, ABC is a triangle

Also, we have:

BP || AC

This means that lines BP and AC are parallel

So, the following angles are congruent by alternate angle theorem

  • \angle 5 \cong \angle 3.
  • \angle 4 \cong \angle 2

The angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees.

So, we have:

\angle 4 + \angle 1 + \angle 5 = 180

By substitution, the above equation becomes

\angle 2 + \angle 1 + \angle 3 = 180

Rewrite the equation as:

\angle 1 + \angle 2 + \angle 3 = 180

Hence, the statement that \angle 1 + \angle 2 + \angle 3 = 180 has been proved
