Answer:
The pentagon MNPQR has a perimeter of 22 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Geometrically speaking, the perimeter of the pentagon is the sum of the lengths of each side, that is:
(1)
(1b)
If we know that

,
,
and
, then the perimeter of the pentagon MNPQR is:



The pentagon MNPQR has a perimeter of 22 units.

Answer: perpendicular slope is -2/3</h3>
=================================================
Work Shown:
Solve the given equation for y
2y = 3x - 10
y = (3x-10)/2 ..... divide both sides by 2
y = (3x)/2 - 10/2
y = (3/2)x - 5
The equation is in y = mx+b form with m = 3/2 as the slope.
The perpendicular slope is -2/3 because we flip the fraction and the sign from positive to negative.
Note how multiplying the original slope 3/2 and the perpendicular slope -2/3 leads to -1
(3/2)*(-2/3) = -1
This is true for any pair of perpendicular lines, assuming neither line is vertical.
If you are given a unit rate (ex: $0.59 per ounce) then you can multiple this by the weight of the cereal to find the cost of the entire box. Do this for both boxes, and then compare the costs.
Hope this helps. I'm not sure that I'm on the right path, but I can help you further if you provide more details.
Good luck!
