Answer:

a. Yes

b. VT

c. Segment RQ

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Find the slope of RS and UV

Slope = rise/run

Slope of RS = rise/run = RQ/QS

Slope of RS = 6/6

Slope of RS = 1

Slope of UV = rise/run = UT/TV

Slope of UV = 3/3

Slope of UV = 1

Thus, TS and UV have equivalent slopes

b. Slope of VT:

VT is an horizontal line.

It has no rise. But only run.

Therefore, it's rise = 0, while run = VT = 3

Slope of VT = rise/run = 0/3

Slope of VT = 0

c. Vertical lines have undefined slope.

Segment RQ is vertical line and therefore has an undefined slope.

RQ has rise but no run.

Thus:

Rise = 6

Run = 0

Slope of Segment RQ = 6/0 (this can't divide)

Therefore, slope of Segment RQ is undefined.

A right triangle's height is 3 times the length of its base. if the area of the triangle is 486, what is the height?

Irina-Kira [14]

The formula of the area of a triangle:
$A_\Delta=\dfrac{bh}{2}$
b - the bash - the height
We have:
b - the base3b - the height486 - the area

Substitute:
$\dfrac{3b\cdot b}{2}=486\ \ \ |\cdot2\\\\3b^2=972\ \ \ |:3\\\\b^2=324\to b=\sqrt{324}\\\\b=16\to h=3b=3\cdot18=54$
Answer: The length of the height is equal 54 units.

Write an equation in point slope form for a line that includes the origin and (9,-3)

aivan3 [116]

So we are given two points that the line crosses, the origin and (9, -3), we can calculate the slope m of the line with these data, dividing the y segment by the x segment:
m = (-3 - 0)/(9 - 0) = -3/9
m = -1/3
then we can use the point slope line equation to find the line equation, lets use the point origin (0,0) to do so:
y - y1 = m(x - x1), where x1, y1 are the coordinates of a point that the line crosses:
y - 0 = (-1/3)(x - 0)
y = (-1/3)x
so this is the equation of the line, slope -1/3 and y intercept 0

What is thd solution for the equation 14.8=n-0.3

Nina [5.8K]

The given equation is:

14.8 = n - 0.3

Adding 0.3 to both sides, we get:

14.8 + 0.3 = n - 0.3 + 0.3
15.1 = n - 0
15.1 = n

Thus, the value of n for which the given equation is true is 15.1
