Answer:

  -1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are the opposite reciprocal of one another.

The slope of line t is the opposite reciprocal of the slope of line s:

  slope of t = -1/(slope of s)

  slope of t = -1/5

In the figure, Δ ABC Δ XYZ. What is the perimeter of ΔABC? Show your work.
slava [35]

Answer:

49

Step-by-step explanation:

∆ABC~ ∆XYZ

AB= 11 that is half of XY = 22

therefore XZ/2 = AC (base) = 32/2 = 16

and YZ /2 = BC(hypotenuse) = 44/2 = 22

(a= 11, b= 16, c= 22)

perimeter of a triangle

P = a+b+c

P= 11+16+22= 49

KiRa [710]
Ok so <span>Interest = Principle * rate * time P = 10,000 R = 3% = 0.03 T (we need to solve for t I = 3600 now we sub.. 3600 = (10,000)(0.03)(t) 3600 = 300t -- divide both sides by 300 3600/300 = t 12 = t check.. I = prt 3600 = (10000)(0.03)(12) 3600 = (300)(12) 3600 = 3600 (correct) It would take 12 years</span>

What is the answer to the question
S_A_V [24]

The equation of the parallel line is y = –2x – 11.

Solution:

Given equation of the line is y = –2x – 5.

Slope of this line is (m_1) = –2

To write the equation parallel to this line and passes through (–4, –3).

<em>If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope.</em>

\Rightarrow m_1=m_2

\Rightarrow m_2 =-2

<u>Point-slope formula:</u>

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Substitute the given values in the formula, we get

y-(-3)=-2(x-(-4))

y+3=-2(x+4)

y+3=-2x-8

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

y+3-3=-2x-8-3

y=-2x-11

Hence the equation of the parallel line is y = –2x – 11.
