Segment AB is on the line y − 4 = −5(x − 1), and segment CD is on the line y − 4 = one fifth(x − 5). Which statement proves the

Answer:

Segments AB and CD are perpendicular to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you were to convert line segments AB and CD into slope-intercept form(y=mx+b), you would get y=-5x+1 for AB and y=1/5x-5.

Any line with a slope that is flipped-oppisite (-5/1 to -1/5 to1/5)

of another line must be perpendicular to each other. It doesn't have to have the same y-intercept, it just makes the intersecting point different.

Answer:

"They are perpendicular because they have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of −5 and one fifth."

Step-by-step explanation:

These lines are both in a form called point-slope form which is

y-y_1=m(x-x_1) where m is slope and (x_1,y_1) is a point on the line.

If we determine the slopes are opposite reciprocal, then we have determine the lines are perpendicular.

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y − 4 = −5(x − 1), we see the m is -5.

The slope of this line is -5.

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y − 4 = one fifth(x − 5), we see the m is (1/5).

The opposite reciprocal of -5 is 1/5 so theses lines are perpendicular.

If the length of the minor axis of an ellipse is 6 units and the length of the major axis is 10 units, how far from the center a
Sedbober [7]

The distance from the center to where the foci are located exists 8 units.

<h3>How to determine the distance from the center?</h3>

The formula associated with the focus of an ellipse exists given as;

c² = a² − b²

Where c exists the distance from the focus to the center.

a exists the distance from the center to a vertex,

the major axis exists 10 units.

b exists the distance from the center to a co-vertex, the minor axis exists 6 units

c² = a² − b²

c² = 10² - 6²

c² = 100 - 36

c² = 64

c = \sqrt{64}

c = 8

Therefore, the distance from the center to where the foci are located exists 8 units.

A 90% confidence interval for the average weight (in pounds) of Americans was found to be (185, 210). The point estimate for thi
Lynna [10]

Answer:

B. 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the lowe confidence interval = 185

The upper confidence interval = 210

Mean of X = (lower confidence + upper confidence interval)/2

Mean of X = 185 + 210/2

= 197.5

The margin of error = the upper confidence interval - mean of X

= 210-197.5

= 12.5

Let’s think about another type of scenario. What if you were told that a bracelet requires 10 beads and 10 minutes to make while
Georgia [21]

Answer:

$425

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of bracelets made and let y represent the number of necklace made.

Since the craftsman has 1000 beads to work with, hence:

10x + 20y ≤ 1000    (1)

Also, the craftsman has 1600 minutes, hence:

10x + 40y ≤ 1600   (2)

From ploting equations 1 and 2 on the geogebra online graphing, we can see that the solution to the problem is (40, 30).

Since the bracelet costs $5 and a necklace costs $7.50, hence the maximum revenue is:

Revenue = 5x + 7.5y = 5(40) + 7.5(30) = $425
