The fact that the slopes of HF and GH are negative reciprocals proves that FGH is a right triangle.

The slope of HF is given by
m = (-4-4)/(-3-2) = -8/-5 = 8/5

The slope of GH is given by
m = (-4--9)/(-3-5) = (-4+9)/(-3-5) = 5/-8 = -5/8

These are reciprocals and opposite sides.  This only occurs if the lines are perpendicular; thus they make a right angle.

The slope of GH= -5/8, and the slope of FH=8/5, therefore, GH | FH

Find an equation of the line parallel to y= 1/3x +1 and that passes through the point (3,5)
bulgar [2K]
So in order to find the line you’ll have to submit the point (3,5) and the slope into the point slope formula : y-y1= m(x-x1)

Y-5= 1/3(x-3)

Solve(turn to y intercept form):

Y-5= 1/3x -1

If order matters, then there are 12 ways to do this

If order does not matter, then there are 6 ways to do this

===========================================

We have 4 choices for the first slot and 3 choices for the next (we can't reuse a letter) so that's where 4*3 = 12 comes from

If order doesn't matter, then something like AB is the same as BA. So we are doubly counting each possible combo. To fix this, we divide by 2: 12/2 = 6

To be more formal, you can use nPr and nCr to get 12 and 6 respectively (use n = 4 and r = 2)

The product of 2 and a number minus 9 is 13
algol13
<h3><u>The value of the number is equal to 11.</u></h3>

2x - 9 = 13

<em><u>Add 9 to both sides.</u></em>

2x = 22

<em><u>Divide both sides by 2.</u></em>

x = 11

A car produces 53.9 tons of carbon dioxide over a 7 year period. Find its carbon footprint (tons of carbon dioxide per year).
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

carbon footprint

  7.7 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

carbon dioxide produced by a car over 7 year period = 53.5 tons

To find,

carbon footprint <em>(tons of carbon dioxide per year)</em>

7 years ------> 53.5 tons

1 year   -------> 53.9/7 tons

= 7.7 tons

tons of carbon dioxide produced per year = 7.7
