d reciprocal slopes.

Answer:

If the line RS has been rotated 90 degrees, then VU will be perpendicular to RS and the two slopes must be opposite and reciprocal, i.e. product of the two slopes will equal -1.

As a verification, we find the locations of V and U from rotations of R & S.

(actually, the triangle had been rotated -90°, 90 ° clockwise)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope RS, m1:

Slope VU, m2

Hence m1*m2=1*-1=-1, meaning that m1 and m2 are opposite (in sign) and are reciprocal to each other, as expected

1:  1.19 for 67.2 ounces is about 1.77 cents per ounce.  However, $1.50 for 72 ounces is about 2.08 cents per ounce.  Clearly, then, the first bottle is cheaper.

2.  We simply divide 3/4 by 2 to get (3/4)/2=3/(4*2)=3/8.

3.  If the length of the second is 20 feet compared to a 2-foot length for the first, the width of the second rectangle will be ten times the width of the first, so the width of the second rectangle is 10*8=80.

The equation v/2 -21=-15 is solved in several steps below.
Arada [10]

Answer:

V/2 - 21 = -15

V/2 - 21 + 21 = -15 + 21

V/2 + 0 = 6

V/2 * 2 = 6 * 2

V = 12

The answer would be 48.
All you would have to do is multiply the height (the straight line) and the length which is the 6.
