A line that's perpendicular would have a slope that the negative reciprocal of the line in the question
1. use the points to find the slope
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
=(-3-7)/(-7+5) (it's +5 because --5=+5)
=-10/-2
-5
slope of the line is -5
2. The negative reciprocal is basically flipping over a fraction (3/4 would become 4/3) and then multiplying it by -1 (4/3 would become -4/3)
Because -5 is really -5/1 you would flip it to -1/5 then multiple by -1 to equal 1/5.
3. Now we just need any line that has a slope of 1/5
y=mx+b where m=1/5 and b is whatever number you want
y=1/5x+8
y=1/5x-193748
y=1/5x-103595
All these are right answers just pick your favourite number for b

Franklin rolls a pair of six-sided fair dice with sides numbered 1 through 6.
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The answer is 7/36.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find out how many possible outcomes there are from rolling a pair of dice. On one cube, you can roll a 1,2,3,4,5, or 6; so there are 6 outcomes. Since there are two cubes, you multiply 6 by itself to get a total of 36 possible outcomes. Next, you find the probability of the sum of the numbers rolled being an even number; the possibilities are 2,4,6,8,10, or 12, which is 6/36. The probability of rolling a multiple of 5; the one possibility is just 5, since we already accounted for rolling a 10 as an even number. So that is 1/36. The word <u>or</u> says that we add the two probabilities, so the final answer is 6/36+1/36=7/36.

Plz help!! Will give 30 points!!
Inessa [10]

Answer:

B) 12

Step-by-step explanation:

C is the circumference, d is the diameter, and r is the radius.  They are related by the following equations:

d = 2r

C = πd = 2πr

If d = 6.0, then r = 3.0.

If C / C' = 0.25, then:

(2πr) / (2πr') = 0.25

r / r' = 0.25

3 / r' = 0.25

r' = 12
