Y = 2/3 x -3 y = -3/2 x +2 what statement about the lines are true

Mathematics
1 answer:
Hoochie [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The product of the slopes of lines is -1.

i.e. m₁ × m₂ = -1

Thus, the lines are perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given the lines

y = 2/3 x -3       --- Line 1

y = -3/2x +2      --- Line 2

<u>The slope of line 1</u>

y = 2/3 x -3       --- Line 1

By comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

The slope of line 1 is: m₁ = 2/3

<u>The slope of line 2</u>

y = -3/2x +2      --- Line 2

By comparing with the slope-intercept y = mx+b form of the line equation

The slope of line 2 is: m₂ = -3/2

We know that when two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1.

Let us check the product of two slopes m₁ and m₂

m₁ × m₂ = (2/3)(-3/2 )

m₁ × m₂ = -1

Thus, the product of the slopes of lines is -1.

i.e. m₁ × m₂ = -1

Thus, the lines are perpendicular.

3. In ΔABC, AB = 5 inches and BC = 3 inches. Which of the choices represents all possible values for AC, in inches?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

2< AC<8

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle to exits sum of two sides must always be greater than the the third side

⇒ AC<  AB+ BC =5+3=8 in

⇒AC<8 in

Also, the  difference of the two sides must be smaller than the length of third side

⇒ AC> | AB-BC| = |5-3| =2

AC> 2 in

therefore,  we can say  2< AC<8. Hence, AC can takes 3,4,5,6 values

Three single-digit numbers multiply to make 504 Write the missing numbers
boyakko [2]
We will guess and check to solve this problem

504/9= 56
504/8= 63
504/7= 72
504/6= 84
.....
we can continue the pattern. However, we know that 50 is the product of 8 and 7, so we can use that number

9*8*7=504

-2|x-4|+7=-3 how do i solve this absolute value problem
ira [324]
Let's do this step by step:
Subtract both sides by 7
-2|x-4|= -10
Divide each side by -2
|x-4|= 5
Now since this is an absolute value equation, you will have two answers. This means you make the equation both positive and negative.
X-4= 5and -(x-4)= 5
Solve for x for both
X-4= 5: add four on both sides
X= 9
-x+ 4= 5: subtract 4 and divide by -1
X= -1
So your answer is: X= -1 , 9
