Answer:

  • (1,3) is inside the triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Orthocenter is the intersection of altitudes.

We'll calculate the slopes of the two sides and their altitudes ad find the intersection.

<h3>Side QR</h3>
  • m = (3 - 5)/(4 - (-1)) = -2/5

<u>Perpendicular slope:</u>

  • -1/m = 5/2

<u>Perpendicular line passes through S(-1, -2):</u>

  • y - (-2) = 5/2(x - (-1)) ⇒ y = 5/2x + 1/2
<h3>Side RS</h3>
  • m = (-2 - 3)/(-1 -4) = -5/-5 = 1

<u>Perpendicular slope:</u>

  • -1/m = -1/1 = -1

<u>Perpendicular line passes through Q(-1, 5):</u>

  • y - 5 = -(x - (-1)) ⇒ y = -x + 4

The intersection of the two lines is the orthocenter.

<u>Solve the system of equations to get the coordinates of the orthocenter:</u>

  • 5/2x + 1/2 = x + 4
  • 5x + 1 = -2x + 8
  • 7x = 7
  • x = 1

<u>Find y-coordinate:</u>

  • y = -1 + 4 = 3

The orthocenter is (1, 3)

If we plot the points, we'll see it is inside the triangle

Artyom0805 [142]

<u>Answer:</u>

B.    f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x + 3}{9}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

let \space\ y = f(x)\\\\y = 9x -3\\

• Now make x the subject of the equation:

9x = y + 3\\\\x = \frac{y + 3}{9} \\

• Replace x with f⁻¹(x) and y with x:

f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x + 3}{9}

Fill 350 milliliter bottles from a 30 liter drum how many bottles
Mama L [17]

Answer:

  85

Step-by-step explanation:

0.350 L × n = 30 L . . . . . where n is the number of bottles.

Divide by 0.350:

  n = (30 L)/(0.350 L) ≈ 85.7

85 bottles can be filled, and one can be partially filled.

_____

Of course, you know the SI prefix milli- means 1/1000, so 350 mL = 350/1000 L = 0.350 L. When you do the division indicated above, ...

  (30 L)/(0.350 L)

the units of liters cancel, and you are left with the number of bottles.
