Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line is y=2x+5

By comparing it with the y=mx+b

we say that the slope of the given line is m=2

The concept is that the slope of a perpendicular line is given by -1/m.

Hence the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is

-\frac{1}{2}

How to use the distributive property to write an expression equivalent to 5x(3 4)?
Nitella [24]
I am assuming theres an addition sign between the 3 and 4.
So basically you want to multiply the 5x by both terms so it will end up being
(5x•3) + (5x•4)
Now simplify:
15x+20x
Hope this helped ^_^

What is the formula to find the measure of each interior angle of a regular polygon
Setler [38]

Answer:

A regular polygon is a flat shape whose sides are all equal and whose angles are all equal. The formula for finding the sum of the measure of the interior angles is (n - 2) * 180. To find the measure of one interior angle, we take that formula and divide by the number of sides n: (n - 2) * 180 / n.

Step-by-step explanation:

There ya go.. :)

The slope of the green line if the lines are perpendicular is -1/4

<h3>Perpendicular lines</h3>

For two lines two be perpendicular, the product of their slope must be -1. Let the slope of the red and green line be m1 and m2.

Given the following

Slope of red line = 4

According the definition

4m2 = -1

m2 = -1/4

Hence the slope of the green line if the lines are perpendicular is -1/4

How many different combinations of pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, and half dollars can a piggy bank contain if it has 20 coi
ycow [4]
 <span>Because there are 20 coins plus four bars = 24 items to choose. You want to choose where to put the four bars, thus C(24,4). There are four bars, not five. Note that four bars divide the 20 coins into five sections. Five bars would divide it into six, but we only have five different kinds of coins to choose from.</span>
