Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange 2x + 3y = 4 into this form
Subtract 2x from both sides
3y = - 2x + 4 ( divide all terms by 3 )
y = - 
x + 
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = -
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= - 
= - 
= 
, hence
y = x + c ← is the partial equation of the perpendicular line
To find c substitute (- 2, 15) into the partial equation
15 = - 3 + c ⇒ c = 15 + 3 = 18
y = x + 18 → B
Answer: Width = 3cm
Length = 8cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Length = x+5 cm
Width = xcm
Area = 24cm²
Area of a rectangle = length × width
x × (x + 5) = 24
x² + 5x = 24
x² + 5x - 24 = 0
x² + 8x - 3x - 24 = 0
x(x + 8) - 3(x + 8) = 0
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
Width = 3cm
Since length = x + 5 = 3 + 5 = 8cm
Length = 8cm
Answer:
seven hundred and twenty nine
Answer:
The answer is a. 21.
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve this question by using Pythagoras theorem to relate the sides of a right angled triangle.
Here,
Hypotenuse of the given triangle(c)=75
Two sides of right angled triangle are:
a=72
b=?
Then,
for a given right angled triangle abc,
Using Pythagoras theorem,
Squaring on both sides,
or,
or, 
or,
or,
∴
So, the value of b is obtained to 21 by the use of Pythagoras theorem.
