Answer: Parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Set your -2x+10y=5 equation equal to y

-2x+10y=5

-10y -10y

-2x=5-10y

-5 -5

-2x-5+-10y

-10 -10 -10

-1/5x-1/2=y

Now you can put your equations into your graphing calculator and examine the lines made

(if you dont have one search up online graphing calculator on google or your app store)

Consider a circle whose size can vary. The circumference of the circle is always 2 π 2π times as large as its radius. Let r r re

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: $C=2\pi r$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "C" the circumference of the circle (in feet) and "r" the radius of the circle (in feet).

Based on the information provided in the problem, you know that the circumference of the circle is always $2\pi$ as large as its radius.

Notice that this indicates a multiplication. Then, this means that the circumference of the circle is always equal to $2\pi$ by "r".

Based on this, you can write the following formula that expresses the circumference "C" in terms of the radius "r":

$C=2\pi r$

Find the perimeter of pentagon STUVW WITH VERTICES S(0,0) T(3,-2) U(2,-5) V(-2,-5) W(-3,-2)

andrew11 [14]

Use the distance formula.

$\sqrt{( x_{2} - x_{1} )^2 + (y_{2} - y_{1})^2}$

Points S and W.
$\sqrt{(3)^2 + (2)^2}$

$\sqrt{9+4}$

$\sqrt{13}$

~3.6

Points S and T
$\sqrt{(3 - 0)^2 + (-2 - 0)^2}$

$\sqrt{(3)^2 + (-2)^2}$

$\sqrt{9+4}$

$\sqrt{13}$

~3.6

Points T and U
$\sqrt{(3 - 2)^2 + (-2 + 5)^2}$

$\sqrt{(1)^2 + (3)^2}$

$\sqrt{1+9}$

$\sqrt{10}$

~3.1

Points U and V
$\sqrt{(2+2)^2 + (-5 + 5)^2}$

$\sqrt{(4)^2 + (0)^2}$

$\sqrt{16}$

~4

Points V and W
$\sqrt{(-2+3)^2 + (-5 + 2)^2}$

$\sqrt{(1)^2 + (-3)^2}$

$\sqrt{2+9}$

$\sqrt{11}$

~3.3

Add all these together.

3.3 + 3.1 + 4 + 3.1 + 3.6
≈17
