The apothem represents one side of the right triangle to be solved. Specifically, it represents the height of the triangle.
 The radius of the polygon represents the hypotenuse of the right triangle that is going to be solved.
 Therefore, we can infer that the radius of the polygon is greater than the apothem because the hypotenuse is greater than all sides of a triangle.
 Answer:
 the radius of the polygon is greater

Trey has completed 36 deliveries so far this week. He needs to make 80 deliveries for the week. What percentage of deliveries ha
anygoal [31]

We must build the proportion

deliveries made : deliveries due = x : 100

in fact, we must express the fraction of work done as a fraction with denominator 100.

So, we have

\dfrac{36}{80}=\dfrac{x}{100}\iff x=\dfrac{3600}{80}=45

Trey has completed 45% of his work so far.

9. Consider the line y = 4x+9. If a second line is perpendicular to this one, what is its slope? please show your work, i will m
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Slope of the line perpendicular to the given line = - \frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

If two are lines are perpendicular to each other,

the product of their slopes = - 1 .

That is ,

      m_ 1 \times m_2 = -1

Slope of the given line :

m_ 1 = 4

Hence slope of the line perpendicular to it :

                                                                4 \times m_ 2 = - 1 \\\\\frac{4}{4} \times m_2 = - \frac{1}{4} \\\\1 \times m_2 = - \frac{1}{4}\\\\m_ 2 = \frac{-1}{4}

If the reciprocal of the number $X$ equals $\frac{2}{7}$, what is $5$ divided by $X$?
grigory [225]
U can find the reciprocal of a number by flipping the number.
example : the reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1....the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2.

the reciprocal of x = 2/7.....that means x = 7/2

5 / (7/2) = when dividing fractions, flip what u r dividing by, then  multiply
5 * 2/7 =
10/7 or 1 3/7 <==
