Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: First, we need to understand that parallel lines are coplanar lines that do not intersect. On the other hand, perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right angle.

However, lines can't be both parallel and perpendicular because they either intersect each other at a right angle or never intersect.

So no, two lines can't be both parallel and perpendicular.

Suppose you have a bag containing 2 black marbles and 3 red marbles. You reach into the bag, select a marble, see what color it

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

$\dfrac{9}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the bag contains black and red marbles.

Number of black marbles in the bag = 2

Number of red marbles in the bag = 3

Total number of marbles in the bag = Number of black marbles + Number of red marbles = 2 + 3 = 5

Let us have a look at the formula for probability of an event E, which can be observed as:

$P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}$

$P(\text{First red marble}) = \dfrac{\text{Number of red marbles}}{\text{Total number of marbles}} = \dfrac{3}{5 }$

Now, the marble chosen at first is replaced.

Therefore, the count remains the same.

$P(\text{Second red marble}) = \dfrac{\text{Number of red marbles}}{\text{Total number of marbles}} = \dfrac{3}{5}$

Now, the required probability can be found as:

$P(\text{First red marble})\times P(\text{Second red marble}) = \dfrac{3}{5}\times \dfrac{3}{5} = \bold{\dfrac{9}{25} }$

(-3,-2). (9. -15) Slope

zaharov [31]

answer:

-13/12

Step-by-step explanation:

use the formula to find slope using points

it is: y2-y1/x2-x1

plug in point values into formula

-3 = x1. 9 = x2

-2= y1. -15 = y2

-15-(-2)/ 9-(-3)

If tan A = 4/5; what does CSC A =? Round to nearest tenth.

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

$\tan \: A = \frac{4}{5} \\ \\ \cot \: A = \frac{1}{ \tan \: A } = \frac{1}{ \frac{4}{5} } = \frac{5}{4} \\ \\ csc\: A = \sqrt{1 + {cot}^{2}\: A} \\ = \sqrt{1 + { \bigg( \frac{5}{4} \bigg)}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{1 + \frac{25}{16} } \\ = \sqrt{\frac{16 + 25}{16} } \\ = \sqrt{\frac{41}{16}} \\ = \frac{ \sqrt{41} }{4} \\ = \frac{6.40312424}{4} \\ = 1.60078106 \\ \therefore \: csc \: A =1.6$
