Answer:

An equation parallel to 4x + 5y = 19 would be y = -4/5x +12.

An equation perpendicular to 4x + 5y = 19 would be y = 5/4x + 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given represents a linear equation in Standard Form (Ax + By = C). Lines that are parallel to each other go the same direction and don't touch, so their slopes must be the same. However, lines that are perpendicular go in opposite directions and intersect, so their slopes must be the direct opposite of each other. In order to find the slope, you must first convert from the Standard Form given to Slope Intercept Form (y = mx +b). When you solve the given equation for 'y', you get: y = -4/5x + 19, where the slope = -4/5. To make a parallel equation, simply keep the same slope and choose a different y-intercept ('b'). To make a perpendicular equation, take the direct opposide of your slope 5/4 (positive) and choose a different y-intercept.

On a piece of paper, use a protractor to construct a triangle with angle measures of 40 degrees and 60 degrees.

Andru [333]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Well every triangle has to equal 180 degrees.

So you would add the two degrees you already have, which on this one you would get 100.

Then, you would subtract that number from 180 to get 80.

Hope this helps you!!

An isosceles trapezoid ABCD with height 2 units has all its vertices on the parabola y=a(x+1)(x−5). What is the value of a, if p

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

a = -0.3575

Step-by-step explanation:

The points A and D lie on the x-axis, this means that they are the x-intercepts of the parabola, and therefore we can find their location.

The points A and B are located where

$y=a(x+1)(x-5)=0$

This gives

$x=-1$

$y=5$

Now given the coordinates of A, we are in position to find the coordinates of the point B. Point B must have y coordinate of y=2 (because the base of the trapezoid is at y=0), and the x coordinate of B, looking at the figure, must be x coordinate of A plus horizontal distance between A and B, i.e

$B_x=A_x+\frac{2}{tan(60)} =-1+\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{3}$
