Answer:

y = (-1/5)x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of this perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line y = 5x + 4:  -1/5.

Applying the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line, we get:

2 = (-1/5)(-5) + b, or:

2 = 1 + b

Therefore, b = 1 and the desired equation is:

y = (-1/5)x + 1

What do all of these polygons have in common? There are four polygons labeled A, B, C and D. Each polygon has one pair of parall
mafiozo [28]

The thing that all these polygons have in common is B. Each appears to have one pair of parallel sides.

<h3>What is a polygon?</h3>

A polygon is a plane figure characterized by a finite number of straight line segments joined to form a closed polygonal chain in geometry. A polygon is defined as a bounded plane region, a bounding circuit, or both. A polygonal circuit's segments are known as its edges or sides.

A polygon is a two-dimensional closed object with straight sides that is flat or plane. It doesn't have any curved edges. The vertices are the spots where two sides intersect.

A geometric figure has parallel sides if the distance between them does not change and the sides do not meet or cross. Parallel sides of a shape are opposing, or across from each other, and would not intersect if extended infinitely beyond the shape's boundaries.

Parallelogram, rectangles, squares, trapezoids, hexagon, and octagon are examples of shapes with parallel sides.

A) A plane takes off at 50 feet below sea level and climbs 1,542 feet. At what altitude is the plant currently flying?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

A) 1,492

B) 1,908

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The equation set up for this part is 1,542-50=1,492 We know that we're subtracting 50 from 1,542 because it say that the plane starts below sea level.

B) The equation set up for this part is 3,400-1,492=1,908 We know that we're subtracting the answer from part A from 3,400 because the plane will need to climb the difference in order to reach 3,400.

Evaluate x + y when x = -94 and y = 24<br><br>A: -118<br>B: -70<br>C: 70<br>D: 118​
malfutka [58]
It’s b because 94 is negative so that means you have to subtract to get -70
