Answer:

C. -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

We know that line m is perpendicular to line l.

Line l has a slope of 2/3. To find the slope of line m, find the negative reciprocal of 2/3.

Negative: switch the sign

2/3 --> -2/3

Reciprocal: switch the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number)

-2/3 --> -3/2

Line m has a slope of -3/2 and C is correct.

Given right triangle ABC with altitude BD drawn to hypotenuse AC. If AC =16 and DC=5 what is the length of BC in the simplest ra

Nana76 [90]

The length of BC is $4 \sqrt{5}$ .

Solution:

Given ABC is a right triangle.

AC is the hypotenuse and BD is the altitude.

AB and BC are legs of the triangle ABC.

AC = 16 and DC = 5

Leg rule of geometric mean theorem:

$\frac{\text { hypotenuse }}{\text { leg }}=\frac{\text { leg }}{\text { part }}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{AC}{BC}=\frac{BC}{DC}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{16}{x}=\frac{x}{5}$

Do cross multiplication.

$\Rightarrow 16\times 5 = x\times x$

$\Rightarrow 80= x^2$

$\Rightarrow 16\times 5= x^2$

Taking square root on both sides.

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{16\times 5} = \sqrt{x^2}$

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{4^2\times 5} = \sqrt{x^2}$

square and square roots get canceled, we get

$\Rightarrow 4\sqrt{ 5} = x$

The length of BC is $4 \sqrt{5}$ .

What is the length of AB? please help!

ira [324]

Answer:

AB = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is isosceles, the sides AB and BC are congruent. Then you have ...

4x = 2x+6

2x = 6 . . . . . . subtract 2x

4x = 12 . . . . . .multiply by 2

The side AB has length 12.

Given b(x) = |x+4], what is b(-10)? -10 -6 8 14

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

b(-10) = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

b(x) = |x + 4|

b(-10) is x = -10

Step 2: Substitute and Evaluate

b(-10) = |-10 + 4|

b(-10) = |-6|

b(-10) = 6
