If the slope of BC is 1/2 what is the slope of AC

Mathematics
1 answer:
crimeas [40]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete.

However, I'll answer base on the following assumptions.

1. AC and BC are parallel.

2. AC and BC are perpendicular

For (1)

Parallel lines have equal slopes.

So, AC = BC = ½

For (2)

Slope of perpendicular line is:

m1 * m2 = -1

Take m1 as slope of BC

So, we have

½ * m2 = -1

Solve for m2

m2 = -1/½

m2 = -1 * 2

m2 = -2

Hence, the slope of AC is -2

Which function has the greatest constant of variation? A x 8 9 10 11 y 20 22.5 25 27.5 B x 1 2 3 4 y 3.2 6.4 9.6 12.8
Lina20 [59]

Answer : B x 1 2 3 4 y 3.2 6.4 9.6 12.8

WE analyze the first option A

x -- y -- Difference

8 -- 20

9 -- 22.5 -- 2.5

10 -- 25 -- 2.5

11 -- 27.5 -- 2.5

From the first function we can see there is a constant difference of 2.5.

We analyze the second option B

x -- y -- Difference

1 -- 3.2

2 -- 6.4 -- 3.2

3 -- 9.6 -- 3.2

48 -- 12.8 -- 3.2

From the second function we can see there is a constant difference of 3.2

3.2 is the greatest

So second function B has the greatest constant of variation.

In the figure,BE||CD. Solve for . Show your work.
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

AE is 9. ED is 6. The triangle ABE is proportional to ACD, so their sides are proportional. For example, AE:ED = AB:BC. So, ED/AE = 2/3 = BC/AB. This gives us 2/3 = x/10, which gives us x=6.6667

Which is the approximate solution for the system of equations 3x+4y=2 and 4x+y=-4
harina [27]

3x+4y=2\qquad\text{subtract 3x from both sides}\\\\4y=-3x+2\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\y=-\dfrac{3}{4}x+\dfrac{2}{4}\to y=-\dfrac{3}{4}x+\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\for\ x=0\to y=-\dfrac{3}{4}(0)+\dfrac{1}{2}=0+\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}\to\left(0,\ \dfrac{1}{2}\right)\\\\for\ x=2\to y=-\dfrac{3}{4}(2)+\dfrac{1}{2}=-\dfrac{3}{2}+\dfrac{1}{2}=-\dfrac{2}{2}=-1\to(2,\ -1)\\--------------------------------\\

4x+y=-4\qquad\text{subtract 4x from both sides}\\\\y=-4x-4\\\\for\ x=0\to y=-4(0)-4=0-4=-4\to(0,\ -4)\\\\for\ x=-1\to y=-4(-1)-4=4-4=0\to(-1,\ 0)\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{A.\ (-1.4,\ 1.5)}
