Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same gradient.

A line with a slope of zero is a horizontal line. Although two lines that have a slope of zero will result in two parallel lines, not all parallel lines are horizontal lines. Since the question is asking for which statement <u>must</u> be true, option A is incorrect.

If the slopes of two lines are negative reciprocals, they are perpendicular to each other. This is because the product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines is -1. Let the gradient of the first line be A and the other be B.

AB= -1

A =   - \frac{ 1}{B}

B =  -  \frac{1}{A}

Thus, option B is incorrect too.

Undefined slopes gives vertical lines. Like option A, if two lines have an undefined slope, they will be parallel to each other. However since parallel lines are nit necessarily vertical lines, option C is also incorrect.

a) Saturn is 9.1 * 10^8 miles from the sun and earth is 9.3 * 10^7 miles from the sun. By what distance is one planet closer to
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

8.17 * 10^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Saturn is 9.1 * 10^8 miles from the sun, and earth is 9.3 * 10^7 miles from the sun. From this, we can see that Saturn is much farther from the sun than the earth.

To find the distance of one planet closer to the sun than the other planet, we can subtract 9.3 * 10^7 from 9.1 * 10^8.

Original expression: 9.1 * 10^8 - 9.3 * 10^7

Convert both sides to 10^7: 91 * 10^7 - 9.3 * 10^7

Subtract: 81.7 * 10^7

Simplify: 8.17 * 10^8

When solving 8,411 ÷ 52, you decide to start by subtracting 100 groups of 52. What is the remainder?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

I think that the remainder would be 39. I am not 100% sure however.

Step-by-step explanation:

I started by doing 8411-5200 because 100 groups of 52 is 5200. I got 3211 and then divided that by 52. I got 62 r 39. Hope this helps!!
