Answer:

Slope = rise / run

= -12 / 1500 (It's -12 and not 12 because a drop means it's decreasing)

= -0.008

Why is it important to graph terms of ordered pairs in the correct order on a coordinate plane
Alexxandr [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

When an ordered pair refers to the location of a point in the coordinate plane, they are called the coordinates of the point. The order is important because a point named by the ordered pair ( 5, 3 ) is not at the same location as the point named by the ordered pair ( 3, 5 ).

Through: (1,5), perp. to y=-1/10x + 3<br> pls help
Sedbober [7]
First to get the equation you knew to understand one thing about perpendicular lines. The slope of the line is the opposite reciprocal of the perpendicular lines or the new slope is m = 10.

Then you use the formula
y = mx + b
you plug in your values from the point and the new slope.
(1,5) with new slope m
5= 10(1)+b
5-10=b
-5 = b
then make your new equation
y = 10x -5
that's your line that goes through point (1,5) and is perpendicular to the line given

Can someone help me out I will give out brainly
Luda [366]

Answer:

x = 2, P = 22 cm, A = 21 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 legs of the triangle are congruent , then

6x - 4 = 8 ( add 4 to both sides )

6x = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 2

perimeter = 8 + 8 + 6 = 22 cm

Area = \frac{1}{2} bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )

Here b = 6 and h = 7 , then

A = \frac{1}{2} × 6 × 7 = 3 × 7 = 21 cm²
