What do we know about those two lines?

They are perpendicular, meaning they have the same slope.
We know the slope of both is not zero (neither is vertical).
Therefore either
1) Both slopes are positive and therefore the product is positive
2) Both slopes are negative and therefore the product is positive (minus by a minus is a plus)

For the y intercepts, we know that the line P passes through the origin.
Therefore its Y intercept is zero.
[draw it if this is not obvious and ask where does it cross the y axis]
Therefore the Y intercept of line K and line P is zero.
[anything multiplied by a zero is a zero]

So we know that the product of slopes is positive, and we know that the product of Y intercepts is zero.
So the product of slopes must be greater.

40 degree, 3x, and 4x solve for x
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The value of x would be 20

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this triangle, we need to first note that all triangles have 180 degrees. So we can add these all together and set equal to 180.

40 + 3x + 4x = 180

40 + 7x = 180

7x = 140

x = 20

What two positive real numbers whose product is 7272 have the smallest possible​ sum?
nadezda [96]
\sqrt{7272} and \sqrt{7272}, or as a rounded decimal 85.28 and 85.28. 

To find the smallest possible sum of roots for any product, the answer is always whatever numbers are closest together. This fact can be derived by the fact that the greatest area we can enclose with a given length is a perfect square. So we can take the square root of 7272 and use that, since they will be exactly the same number. 

If you are looking for whole numbers, you would have to go up or down until you find a factor of 7272 closest to the square root. In this case that would be 72 and 101.
