Answer:

418 4/10

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this we subtract 450 7/10 from 869 1/10.

We must borrow a '1' from 869 1/10: 868 11/10

Now subtract 450 7/10 from 868 11/10:

418 4/10 (CHANGE IN ELEVATION)

This reduces to 418 2/5.

Brainly to whomever somehow solves for x. I WILL REPORT SCAMS AND UNHELPFUL "WHAT?" ANSWERS.

Answer:

$x=\frac{33}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ED is parallel to CA, the two triangles in the figure share all 3 angles and therefore must be similar. By definition, the corresponding sides of similar polygons are in a constant proportion.

Therefore, we have:

$\frac{11}{11+x}=\frac{14}{20},\\14(11+x)=20\cdot 11,\\11+x=\frac{20\cdot 11}{14},\\x=\frac{110}{7}-11=\boxed{\frac{33}{7}}$

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point. y=2/3x+9;(-6,5)

STatiana [176]

The perpendicular equation is y = -3/2x - 4.

You can find this by first realizing that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. So since it starts at 2/3 we flip it and make it a negative and the new slope is -3/2. Now we can use that and the point to get the y intercept using slope intercept form.

y = mx + b

5 = (-3/2)(-6) + b

5 = 9 + b

-4 = b

And now we can use our new slope and new intercept to model the equation.

y = -3/2x - 4
