Answer:

<u>Question 2:</u>

No. The point (1,-6) is not on line L.

Step-by-step explanation:

A straight line L passes through points (a,12) and (4,a)

L is perpendicular to line whose equation is 2x - 3y + 4 = 0

Putting the equation in the straight line equation form:

3y = 2x + 4

y = 2/3x +4/3

Since slope(m) of the perpendicular line is 2/3, line L has a slope of -1 ÷ 2/3 = -3/2

Finding this slope using points given on L:

(a - 12) ÷ (4 - a) = -3/2

2a - 24 = -12 + 3a

a = -12

Taking a point on L (4,a) which is (4,-12) and another point (1,-6);

slope(m) of L = -3/2 and should be equal to (-6 - -12) ÷ (1 - 4) = 6/-3 = -2

Clearly -3/2 ≠ -2

Since a point (1,6) does not give a slope(m) of -3/2 with a point on L; then the point is not on L.

Answer:

6 $\sqrt[]{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of the triangle is 6.

This is because if the 2 given angles are 90, and 45, then that means that last angle must also be 45 because if you add all the angles of a triangle, it adds to 180.

To solve for x, also known as c, we do $a^{2}+b^{2} = c^{2}$ .

If, 36 + 36 = 72, Then x is the square root of 72, also known as D: 6 $\sqrt[]{2}$

(as shown in the picture below)

Write 3 ½% as a fraction

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

7/200

Step-by-step explanation:

3.5% = 3.5/100 = (3.5/100)×(2/2) = 7/200

_____

The % symbol is a shorthand way to write "/100", so 3.5% = 3.5/100.

Answer:

Distance is 6.7units to the nearest tenth.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we the distance formula. And this is given as:

$D = \frac{|a x + b y + c|}{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}$

We were given the equation:

y = 2 x + 4

This can also be rewritten as:

y – 2 x – 4 = 0.

Therefore, a = -2, b = 1 and c = -4

Also, we were given the points:

(x, y) = (–4, 11)

Making use of the above formula for distance, we have:

$D = \frac{|-2\times -4 + 1\times 11 + -4|}{\sqrt{-2^2 + -4^2}}$

$D = \frac{15}{\sqrt{5}}$

D = 6.7units (to the nearest tenth)
