An equation parallel and perpendicular to 4x+5y=19

UNO [17]

Answer:

Parallel line:

$y=-\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{9}{5}$

Perpendicular line:

$y=\frac{5}{4}x-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given equation 4x+5y=19

Firstly, we will solve for y

$4x+5y=19$

we can change it into y=mx+b form

$5y=-4x+19$

$y=-\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{19}{5}$

so,

$m=-\frac{4}{5}$

Parallel line:

we know that slope of two parallel lines are always same

so,

$m'=-\frac{4}{5}$

Let's assume parallel line passes through (1,1)

now, we can find equation of line

$y-y_1=m'(x-x_1)$

we can plug values

$y-1=-\frac{4}{5}(x-1)$

now, we can solve for y

$y=-\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{9}{5}$

Perpendicular line:

we know that slope of perpendicular line is -1/m

so, we get slope as

$m'=\frac{5}{4}$

Let's assume perpendicular line passes through (2,2)

now, we can find equation of line

$y-y_1=m'(x-x_1)$

we can plug values

$y-2=\frac{5}{4}(x-2)$

now, we can solve for y

$y=\frac{5}{4}x-\frac{1}{2}$

What is the range of possible sizes for side x?

faust18 [17]

0.5 < x < 16.5 given: Two sides of triangle: 8.0 units and 8.5 units
Measure of third side = x
According to the triangle's inequality,
Sum of any two sides > third side. (i)
Difference between the sides < third side. (ii)
If x is the third side, then
x < 8+8.5 [Using (i)]
i.e. x< 16.5
Also, x > 8.5-8 [Using (ii)]
i.e. x> 0.5
Hence, Range of possible sizes for side x would be 0.5 < x < 16.5.
