Answer:
135.1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem tells you how to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 120 and 62:
diagonal = √(120² +62²) = √18244 ≈ 135.07
The length of one of the braces is about 135.1 cm.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
First, a line that is parallel, means a line that has the same slope as the original. To find the slope of the original equation, we have to solve for y.
-2x+3y=-6
3y=2x-6
y=2/3x-2
From this equation, we can see that the slope of the line is 2/3. For every 2 units you go up, you move three units over.
Now we need to use the point (-2,0) to find the equation of the parallel line.
y-y=m(x-x)
Plug in the point coordinates and the slope, and solve for the final equation of the line.
y-0=2/3(x+2)
y=2/3x+ 4/3
2 is the answer to your question
<u>We know that:</u>
Slope of a line = change in y coordinate / change in x coordinate
<u>We are given:</u>
First point = (2,5)
Second point = (5, 14)
<u>Calculating the change in y coordinate:</u>
change in y (also represented by Δy) = second y - first y
Δy = 14 - 5
Δy = 9
<u>Calculating the change in x coordinate:</u>
Δx = second x - first x
Δx = 5 - 2
Δx = 3
<u>Slope of the line:</u>
Slope = (Δy) / (Δx)
Slope = 9 / 3 [replacing the values]
Slope = 3
