When y=-2, what kind of line does it have horizontal or vertical

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rashid [163]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Horizontal

Step-by-step explanation: The equation <em>y = -2</em> can be thought of as y = 0x - 2. So our line has a slope of 0 and a y-intercept of -2.

To graph it, we start with the y-intercept, down 2 units on the y-axis. Now, if the slope of a line is 0, then the line must be flat or horizontal.

So we just draw a horizontal line through the y-intercept of -2.

In fact, when the equation of any line reads y = a number, it's graph will always be a horizontal line. For example, y = 3, y = -10, y = -8 and so on.

If a 12 cm altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the hypotenuse into segments with ratio 3:2, what is the lengt
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The length of hypotenuse is 10\sqrt{6} cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's  length of hypotenuse is x

Since, a 12 cm altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the hypotenuse into segments with ratio 3:2

so,

First part of hypotenuse length is

=\frac{3}{5}x

Second part of hypotenuse length is

=\frac{2}{5}x

now, we can draw triangle

We can see that

triangles ABD and ABC are similar

so, the ratio of their sides must be equal

\frac{\frac{3x}{5} }{12}=\frac{12}{\frac{2x}{5}}

now, we can solve for x

\frac{3x}{5}\times\frac{2x}{5}=144

6x^2=3600

x=10\sqrt{6}

So,  

The length of hypotenuse is 10\sqrt{6} cm
