The value x years from now will be
   v(x) = 25000 - 1250x

Filling in the given information, we have
   8500 = 25000 - 1250x
   8500 - 25000 = -1250x
   -16500/-1250 = x = 13.2

It will take 13.2 years for the car to be worth 8,500.

Line g passes through points (5, 9) and (3, 2). Line h passes through points (9, 10) and (2, 12). Are line g and line h parallel
icang [17]

For this case we find the slopes of each of the lines:

The g line passes through the following points:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 3,2)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 5,9)

So, the slope is:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {9-2} {5-3} = \frac {7} {2}

Line h passes through the following points:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 9,10)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 2,12)

So, the slope is:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}}{x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {12-10} {2-9} = \frac {2} {- 7} = - \frac {2} {7}

By definition, if two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal. If the lines are perpendicular then the product of their slopes is -1.

It is observed that lines g and h are not parallel. We verify if they are perpendicular:

\frac {7} {2} * - \frac {2} {7} = \frac {-14} {14} = - 1

Thus, the lines are perpendicular.

Answer:

The lines are perpendicular.

PLEASE HELP ASAP <br> what is the value of x? enter your answer in the box.
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Put the side of the small triangle over the side of the large triangle.

9           15

------ = ----------

2x-1        3x

Using cross products

9*3x = 15(2x-1)

27x = 30x-15

Subtract 30x from each side

27x-30x = 30x-30x -15

-3x = -15

Divide by -3

-3x/-3 = -15x/-3

x = 5

Please help me with number 4!
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

x = 20√2 and y = 20√3.

or x = 28.28 and y = 34.64 to the nearest hundredths.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the 2 'inside' triangles. They are similar.

So we have  x / (60-40) = 40 / x

x/ 20 = 40 /x

x^2 = 800

x = √800

x = 20√2

y = √(800 + 20^2)

= √(1200)

= 20√3.
