i need help please! I think I know the answer but for some reason my brain's telling me that it's wrong so if someone could expl
Ivenika [448]

Considering the slopes of the segments, the correct option is:

D. No, because the triangle ABC doesn't have a pair of perpendicular sides.

<h3>When are lines parallel, perpendicular or neither?</h3>

The slope, given by <u>change in y divided by change in x</u>, determines if the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, as follows:

  • If they are equal, the lines are parallel.
  • If their multiplication is of -1, they are perpendicular.
  • Otherwise, they are neither.

Here, we have to find if there are perpendicular segments, that is, if two slopes multiplied have a value of -1, then:

  • mAB = (-7 - 9)/(11 - 1) = -8/5.
  • mAC = (3 - 9)/(-9 - 1) = 3/5.
  • mBC = (3 - (-7))/(-9 - 11) = -1/2.

No sides are perpendicular, hence option D is correct.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x + 2y = 12 and passes through the point (-2, 4)?
Aneli [31]

Answer: 5x + 2y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Change 5x+2y=12 to slope intercept: 2y = 12 - 5x, y = -5x/2 + 6

A parallel line has the same slope, so the line we try to find is y = -5x/2 + b.

Substitute (-2, 4) in and get 4=5+b, so b = -1.

Therefore the answer is y = -5x/2 - 1, or if you want it in the original form it would be 2y = -5x - 2 ---> 5x+2y = -2.

Hope that helped,

If abc measures 65 what is the measure of adc
andre [41]
ADC should measure to 115 degrees if both measurements are equal to 180 degrees.
If not, ADC might be 25 degrees if both measurements are equal to 90 degrees.
Hope this helps.

The total cost of producing a type of tractor is given by C(x)=11000−20x+0.02x2, where x is the number of tractors produced. How
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to complete the square.

C(x) = 0.02(x^2 - 1000x  ...)  + 11000

C(x) = 0.02 (x^2 - 1000x + 500^2) + 11000 - 5000

C(x) = 0.02 (x^2 - 1000x + 500^2) + 6000

C(x) = 0.02(x - 500)^2 + 6000

Now if you look at the answer you will find that the square is completed. That means that number of tractors you could produce is 500 at a cost of 6000

There is a flow to this question that you may have trouble understanding.

First of all the 500^2. That comes from taking 1/2 of 1000 and squaring it. That's what you need to complete the square.

Bur that is not what you have adding into the equation. Remember that there is a 0.02 in front of the brackets.

500^2 = 250000

0.02 * 250000 = 5000

So that number must be subtracted to make the square = 0. When you remove the brackets, you should get 11000 all in all.

So what you have outside the brackets is 11000 - 5000 = 6000

The rest is just standard for completing the square.
