Answer:

<h2>C. 2x + 5y = 36</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{If}\ A_1x+B_1y=C_1\ \text{is perpendicular to}\ A_2x+B_2y=C_2,\ \text{then}\\\\\dfrac{A_1}{B_1}=-\dfrac{B_2}{A_2}.\\\\\text{We have the equation:}\ 5x-2y=-10\to A_1=5,\ B_1=-2.\\\\\dfrac{A_1}{B_1}=\dfrac{5}{-2}\to-\dfrac{B_2}{A_2}=-\dfrac{5}{2}\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\\dfrac{B_2}{A_2}=\dfrac{5}{2}\to A_2=2,\ B_2=5\\\\\text{Therefore the equation of a perpendicular line is:}\\\\2x+5y=C\\\\\text{Put the coordinates of the given point and solve for}\ C:\\\\2(-2)+5(8)=C\\\\C=-4+40\\\\C=36\\\\\text{Finally:}\\\\2x+5y=36

Two buildings are 12m apart on the same horizontal level. From the top of the taller building, the angle of depression of the bo
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

4.61 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of depression of the bottom of the shorter building from the top of the taller building = 48° equals the angle of elevation of the top of the taller building from the bottom of the shorter building

Using trig ratios

tan48° = H/d where H = height of taller building and d = their distance apart = 12 m

H = dtan48° = 12tan48° = 13.33 m

Also, the angle of elevation of the top of the shorter building from the bottom of the taller building is 36°

Using trig ratios

tan36° = h/d where h = height of shorter building

h =dtan36° = 12tan36° = 8.72 m

Now, the difference in height of the buildings is thus H - h = 13.33 m - 8.72 m = 4.61 m

HELP PLEASE!! The following data shows the weight in ounces of 10 different bags of candy.
STatiana [176]

Answer:

C.

Mean= 4.9

Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD): 4.099173553719

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier is a value that is very different from the other data in your data set. This can skew your results. As you can see, having outliers often has a significant effect on your mean and standard deviation. Because of this, we must take steps to remove outliers from our data sets.

outlier: 21
